headlit
another puffin from shokholm, light was very low and the slope faced away from it causing only this puffin's head lit. If that makes sense?

I like it, but the head has a yellow/green tint on my monitor? It looks a little odd due to the colour difference, if that makes sense?

I have to agree with Paul, i think it needs tweeking a bit!

Large amount of green cast on this image Jack - looks for all the world like type S film (daylight) exposed under fluro tubes :eek:

What was the light source and was your WB set to Auto, or is this a process fault?
