Hi to all,

Gannet , photographed at Bempton cliffs on saturday morning , their so graceful when in flight for such a big bird , but thats a totally different matter when they're coming in to land

, thanks for looking.

Very central, but not suffering too much from it.

I like the wing position and you've controlled the light very well, esp in the whites.
