Looks like Yellow-legged. ID from photo is difficult, especially when there is only one view and only one bird (size comparison not possible).

Thank you Mr Cheung!
Another view of this Gull

The photo of the bird standing shows that it is a 1y heuglini. Too dark above, and a fair number of moulted feathers on the upperparts.

I think if people are going to put photos of gulls, in particular, up here for identification, it would be helpful, and only fair, to upload shots that show different aspects of a bird. Asking for identification of a 1y gull from the underside only can be a little ambitious.
