I think the landing gear has not been fully retracted.

Cool shot.

How did you get the shot - I mostly miss those, I do way better when my subject isn't moving.

Seagulls are pretty easy to photograph when you have someone feeding them nearby. I shoot with a Olympus E-Volt 500 8.1 MP. This shot was manual at 1/4000 sec. Iso 400 at f/3.5. I do wonder though where the heck they put their legs. They are hidden so well they do not look like they have any. The composition is bad though. I missed part of the bird. It would have been alot nicer if both birds would have been fully in the picture.
