I sometimes try to compose photographs in such a way to make it look dark, mysterious, even scary. But sometimes such decisions are made in the post-production process or both. Birds can create this great scary effect in a picture and not only Hitchcock’s black crows can do that but also white seagulls – this is at least my personal opinion.

I’m not a person who gets very excited when photographing birds probably because I hardly even can come up with interesting and unique ideas and composition concepts for photography which includes birds. Therefore, I have a standard rule in such situations: make it scary and mysterious. That’s what I did when I was in Poland for my winter holidays. There were so many seagulls that I couldn’t pass them by without taking few pictures. I have to admit that I’m not extremely happy with this photos but at the same time I don’t think that they are too bad – so I would like to share them with you
