Great picture Graham.

He spent quite a while rolling around like he'd eaten too much turkey.........

Hi Graham,
Lovely shot. No comments. But for some reason the first thing I thought when I saw this picture, that must be a panorama picture.
I took the liberty to copy and past your picture and played a little with it, with the following result.
I do like it, hope you do too. It's not better, it's different.
It's one of the things a learned from this forum, play with your picture.

Thanks Tom. I don't mind at all - personally, I prefer more space around the seal, but as you say, your version is different

Thanks

Graham.

Nice to see you posted it here! Looks better with the minor tweaks. Prefer your version, gives the pup breathing space

Love the wave and the hint of sea in the background

You seem to have found a seal that looks happy, they always look so sad to me. A very nice shot.

Super image & he does look like he is smiling at you.
