A superb behavioural shot, beautifully composed though I do find the blurred breaking wave across the top edge a little distracting :toast:

Super seal shot Jeroen, Jeff's covered my only nit.

For me, the blurred background wave adds to the shot, it kind of compliments the lighter band in the foreground and frames the pair of seals.

Anyway, lovely! :toast:
