Gannet


One from the other day, Gannet collecting nesting material from along the cliff top, holding the whites in the late evening light proved to be quite a challenge, but I think I've just about managed it, what do you think and thanks for looking.

That looks so good against the blue background, good use of the bold colours.

A truly excellent shot, simple but with a high pictorial content, right out of the top most draw, superb.

I think it is a splendid shot. The whites look great and the colour in general is really dramatic and strong. A lovely composition.

Lovely pose, lovely rich colours. If you have more space at the top I think it could do with a little more room there.
