I visited Donna Nook for the first time this year having promised I would on several occassions. It felt a little like it was another rite of passage with so many photographers having gone before and, inevitably, I ended up taking a large number of images similar to ones I have seen here and elsewhere.

However I also took this image. I hoped to tell some of the story of the breeding area and the fact that it gives people an opportunity to get close to nature.

All comments welcomed, Thanks, Niall

I really love the reflection in the eye. Shows the interaction between seals and people here at Donna.
