Wow, I really like that tis a bit different, might be my monitor be be off but it seems in need of a slight lift in levels?

Otherwise like I say i really like it and gives an overall different style of shot, nicely done !

I agree with Drew about the levels, but that is one striking image. Great work.

Very different and very nice too. I agree it could do with a boost. Had to look it up as I hadn't heard of it (type of albatross). I'd love to know how you got the shot.

I leant over the side of the boat with my hands almost in water with a very wide angle, which gives good depth of field. It was within a few inches of the lens

I like this Craig, really good image I love the wide angle it works a treat, it makes the beak look massive!!! :toast: :toast: :toast:

I agree with above re the levels Craig but other than that a very strong and different view of an albatross.

Get the exposure right and this is an impressive image, more room at the bottom would have been good but appreciate that you were shooting this 'blind' ...
