I'm particular taken by the way the
background lines up neatly with the curves of
the gull. There's a stripe of window frame
that aligns with the eye, the bend in upper
wing's wrist joint echoes the bend at the
beginning of the arch over the window, the
line between door and wall perfectly
transects the join between body and tail...
Had I taken this, I would be very tempted to
take this to photoshop and emphasise all
these lovely alignments, although I'm not
sure how or what would work...
