It was tipping down on Steeple Jason island so the albatross were hunkered down tightly on their nests. Wanted a very simple portrait with the bird looking back. Would be my vote for the most beautiful bird species in the world.

Canon 40D 70-200mm f4LIS + 1.4 TC f18 (must have got carried away in the moment!) ISO400 1/250
