I always loved taking pictures of animals. I was also always on the hunt for that "action" shot. During my senior year of high school, I was assigned the task of making a photo story for my journalism class. I chose to go to Lakewood Park and just shoot pictures. At one point, I noticed a flock of gulls squawking loudly. They were bickering over a half-eaten burger king burger. It wasn't too exciting, but I patiently waited until I thought the moment was right. Then I snapped the photo hoping I got a good shot. When I saw how this puppy turned out, for a moment, I felt like a professional photographer. Ultimately, my career in pictures never took off, but this shot makes me feel like I could've done it.
