Common Seal
Not been too well lately, so still looking back through the archives whilst I rid myself of man flu.....

1D MKIII, 500mm @ f4, 1/800, iso400

you've captured a very nice pose Graham, though I think I'd like to see a bit off the top and a bit more on the right.

I hope you recover from the man flu soon.

Hope you feel better soon Graham. Love the background it really compliments the seal colours. I think this pose would work just as well in a vertical format as the eyes are straight at the camera with perhaps a little off the top to compensate for the loss of width. Having left yourself plenty of room means you can play around with this image. :smile:

I think it is a nice, simple composition that works well.

Hello Graham.

Very nice images and love the softness of the colours throughout, composition is just right for me.

Great POV and excellent pose. Looks as if the light was a bit flat for you.
