Sounds like it's time to push the envelope John, get creative as you usually do. This seagull shot would probably sell as a postcard.

Wonderful shot...some people in there too or are those really seagulls in disguise? Suffolk can't be that boring......there's gotta be stuff to shoot you just never shot before. Love this image! The gull does look a little bored...maybe you could take him to the pub for a drink?

Excellent shot, the short DOF and OOF at front and back looks really good.

Perhaps it'll look better in Autumn ??
I like your POV...not sure the seagull does though :)

I love, love, love this creative angle! Well done, JW!

Life's a beach, eh?! Get down to the seashore for a series of night-shots with a torch... that'll keep you going for, err, a day, maybe two :o))
This is a cracker though - there's obviously something going on 'out there'... is it a shark??!!

Thats as close as you get to pefect dof. A notch either way just wouldn't have been the same

Nothing boring here. Those blue skies, the lovely pebbly beach, the sense of people enjoying themselves, the photographer lying on the ground (again!): they all combine to make the rest of us want to visit there. The local tourist board should employ you to take more pictures like this..

I love country life here so beautiful, waking up to birds not cars, just heaven!
You have captured a wonderful essence of the seaside John, love the couple in the background, beautifully composed!
You'll never go back to the city now, you'll be hooked!

This pic is far from boring John ! Get a grip man... LOL!

What's a nice gull like you doing in a place like this?

Superb use of DOF. Well done.
