At first hand it looks nice,but.........as the light is coming from the left the pitch black silhouettes don't seem believable. The used 58 MM and date/time taken (see exif) doesn't help the suggestion either.(placing clouds in conjunction with the gulls) So...I ask you.Is it a merged image from two separate images ?
If so......not a good job. Sorry.
Martin.

Rectification:
After some explaining by Pentaxboyo by PM I felt the need to
post the following:
On retrospect I think my comment sounded more harsh as I intended it to be.
For that I apologize. ( that #%&@!! time window for editing comments :lol It's just that based on the visible info I was pushed into the feeling of a picture blend. That on itself isn't a sin, I do it myself sometimes.
So maybe the conclusion should be that IMO you have overdone the effect a bit, and thereby making it a bit less convincing as a silhouette.
Best regards,
Martin.

I must thank Malo for his sincerity we're always learning

I really like this shot, the colours are amazing and the silhouettes looks cool.
I would, however, crop the image just below the top silhouette so u get less blue in the pic.
Just my taste, a great shot never the less.
