Jonathan Livingston Seagull in Oregon

This photo is showing a regular gray and a bit rainy day in Oregon. The state has a coastline, which is beautiful in any type of whether. This lonely seagull just landed directly in front of me, and I could not miss the opportunity to capture it. The seagull quickly reminded me about the book, which is called "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" by Richard Bach. As it was said in the book, "the seagull is an unlimited idea of freedom" and the seagull in front of me was free from everybody since he was alone. I got so inspired from the view, so I decided to re-read the book and enjoyed it very much.
