Another Puffin Pic
Not had much time to post of late but have been keeping up with the images and their usual high standards.

Spent a fair bit of time on Skomer Island this week (fabulous bluebells and sea campion at this time of year) and the Puffins at The Wick were as obliging as ever.

1DSMk2
500mm f4.0
f8 1/250
ISO200

Pretty standard processing flow and only crop to A4 proportions

nice picture and i like the contrast, between the light foreground and the dark background. But i always like puffin shots :)

I like it,especially with the wide open beak.The dark background makes for quite a dramatic image and isolates the puffin superbly. :toast:
