Correct me if I am wrong but I think your WB is slightly off.... the seagull looks like it has a slight blue cast...
Great picture... I love the lines of rust on the pylon!

Perhaps he's reflecting the blue sea :)

The sharpness is what struck me first. The brightness of the seagull is perhaps a little too much and his cheast is a bit blown, but not by much.

Good use of desaturation too. ;)

Nice pic though and i like it.

white balance was on auto. I generally only play with white balance in poor light areas. I didn't have too much time to configure wb as the ferry soon took off :)

yeah the seagull was right on the edge and the water was quite blue in the sun.

I've been playing with b/w saturation, its quite fun. This pic looked quite good with the greenery, however I wanted it to look more urban hence the effect. was shot at Birchgrove wharf.
