Western Railroad Discussion > Photobombed by a Flock of SeagullsDate: 11/10/12 15:57 Photobombed by a Flock of Seagulls Author: GrandeGold A flock of seagulls flew into my carefully composed photo of BNSF's Provo-Stockton trackage rights train departing Salt Lake City this afternoon.
After the train had passed, they mingled about along Orange Street with an 'I didn't do it' look about them. What do you think . . . does the first photo benefit from the wayward winged wildlife?

Have fun, be safe, hats off to all our veterans Bruce "Doc" Jones Sierra Madre CA Date: 11/10/12 16:04 Re: Photobombed by a Flock of Seagulls Author: ns2557 I Think the FAA might want to conduct a sobriety check on those pilots. The formation is not tight and I wonder whether or not SLC Twr has given them authorization to occupy the airspace they are in. But nice shots. Is that a ground camouflage I see there on the ground which was deposited in order to cover the flight from any images from satellites? Call out the Big Guns. Thanks for sharing. Ben

Best regards, Rob L. Date: 11/10/12 16:23 Re: Photobombed by a Flock of Seagulls Author: Evan_Werkema I'm surprised they stuck around - I would have expected them to run, run so far a-wa-a-ay. ;^)
I like the picture with the gulls, though if you hadn't given the backstory, I would probably have been squinting at it looking for Photoshop artifacts. Date: 11/10/12 17:01 Re: Photobombed by a Flock of Seagulls Author: santafe199 So... Are they GE fans, or just daisy-pickers? ;^)
