Gannet
Backlit in some early morning light...

1DX, 70 - 200 f2.8L @ 200mm, f7.1, iso 800, 1/3200 HH & FF

There are some more on my blog if you are interested and have a moment...

Stunning Graham! The exposure is spot on which would have been tricky in those conditions. Love the comp and it has to be seen large to get the best of the image.

Great blog by the way, I assume you have a good head for heights! Also amazed at the rubbish used for the nest scrape.

Very different Graham and as Nick says it must have been difficult to get such a great result as good as this .
