I agree about it being more suited to landscape, but very nice otherwise and a subject we don't see too often.

This is nice, really nice, but I think I would have also taken it in landscape as I think that format would work just as well if not better. If you can always try and cover as many bases as possible.

Other than possible format issues, I think this is an excellent little study, well seen and executed.

I think it looks fine in Portrait - I prefer images with plenty of space around them. Ditto all the other complimentary comments above. :toast:

Already has that characteristic Eider head at this young age. Love the way the yellows in the seaweed work with the blue sky :smile:
