About the Image(s)

I captured this image in Lake Clark National Park along the beach at low tide. It was a windy day creating a mist from the ocean droplets
Shot with Canon R5 Mark II with RF100-300/f2.8 lens. Shot at 200 mm
Shot at 1/1000 sec F 6.7 ISO 160
The image is slightly cropped in LR to get to 19x6 format and dehazed to remove some of the haze created by the mist., minor adjustments in exposure and shadows.
Interestingly, I submitted this image in a couple of exhibitions. but it did not do well. I wonder if the gulls add to the story or simply create a distraction.
