Photo description / processing

I decided to take some shots of our star to see the spots. My location isn't great—I was shooting from the balcony and wanted to finish before the sun disappeared behind the building opposite. While I was setting up the camera and trying to get the shot, a seagull landed on the roof parapet, and I ended up with one large sunspot in the shape of a seagull.
