Wow.... they are beautiful Basri. I saw one while I was in Iceland. They are very pretty birds.
I will go again next June/July for a 2 day trip only to shot the Puffins. I am told at that time they are there in big numbers and must of the time you can see them with a fist in their beak....Anyway... great shot.

A lovely composition, Basri, and I like the way they're not looking directly at the camera. I do wish the left one had been a bit closer to the focal plain, but it's still acceptably sharp at f/10. However, I'm not sure why you're shooting birds at iso 160. Usually we go with all the shutter speed we can get and that camera still takes wonderful images at iso 1600.

I like this a lot Basri. I hope to photograph Puffins someday. You captured a nice grouping of the birds. Well done!
