Looks to fat to fly from this angle, the foreshortening of the huge wingspan doesn't help, so not a great one but OK for curious eyes.

Cheers now

Hi Tim

Another nice shot with very well controlled whites :cool:

But the black object coming out of its head looks very strange.I take it its the end of its left wing ?.If this was mine i'd clone it out.

Doesn't the pose here remind you of a freefall parachute jumper??

Another stunner Tim - you're getting too good at this :biggrin: :biggrin:

A Gannet shot with a difference! Very attractive with lots of detail in the whites.

I too prefer the repost. I hate cloning stuff out personally, but it really makes a big difference here IMO. Nice job :toast:
