Bina Taylor, Solitude (Single Shot 2017)

I had no planning in composing this shot. I knew I wanted a shot of the rising moon - within a few seconds a lone seagull landed in front of me and a flock of seagulls were flying by. Instinctively I dropped to the ground and took two shots before the seagulls in the background flew by and the lone seagull flew away.
