Thanks for the comments. I placed the crosshairs on the sand dune, but that darn A2 just won't focus properly. (you've read the forum posts) Ruining an otherwise competition winning shot. (jusk kidding :))

The only post processing was a bit of contrast adjustment, some color saturation increase to bring out the green in the suit, and some USM. Then reducing it's size and JPEGing.

I thought it to be a fun shot- but not really competition worthy against some truly exceptional photographers on this forum. Plus, I'd hate for people to vote on it just for the skin.

Hmm, I think you should crop out that big skin toned object in the foreground to get the gulls more in focus. Just kidding, off course. I think this image is pretty funny, especially in combination with the brilliant title. Well done.
Cheers,
Fred
