I havnt been around much lately but hope to have more time now until the new year.
Taken at Donna Nook from the fence line as you cant get anywhere else on a week day. I cringed seeing these 2 Bulls fighting, they certainly earn their 'right'. Even the victor looked totally done in when the fight finished. If there is reincarnation and you get a choice I wont be comeing back as a Male Seal, having said that I wouldnt come back as a female Duck either :)

Nice behavioural shot in what looks like a nice warm light Terry.
I'm not sure about the left hand seal's flipper being so close to the edge of the frame - I think I might have preferred to have it cropped like the right hand seal.
If we had to fight like that I think I might opt for the celibate lifestyle

yes i'd agree with the crop suggestion. i think it would have made for a more impactful image. nice one as is though.

Hi Terry, great action shot. Colours and ligth are great. I think I would crop it to a vertical giving more emphasis to the heads.
