like Denis, I can feel the wind -- and also I can hear the seagulls!

One of the first pictures I took up here was of gulls on a snowy roof. Your picture is clearer! :)

Dustin, Andrew, floots: thanks for your comments.

Dustin: Glad it worked for you.

Andrew: Thanks for that sensory response.

Floots: Knowing your talent as a photographer, I regard that as a great compliment.

You only use the word "rise," but I can picture the gulls flapping their wings and hear the soft noise that it makes.
