Hello Jack, a very nice flight image but I'm not so fond of this as the previous image you posted. The problem with misty shots is that they do degrade the image somewhat and on a flight shot like this there is no background (vegetation, landscape etc) to show the effect of the mist. As a result it just has the unfortunate effect of spoiling an otherwise excellent image. If you hadn't told us it was taken in mist would we have really known?

I quite like this.
You could always try "de misting "it

I like it, I like images taken in less than good weather, especially when they show the conditions that wildlife endures on a daily basis.
A bit of selective noise reduction on the misty area around the Puffin should do the trick.

I like the feel of this Jack. Almost mono with the orange points standing out.

I like it a lot. Mist is 'noisy' so you have captured it well IMHO. Excellent.
