This is a nice scene, like the lichen and flowers. Good to see you're still giving your 500 a work out.

Hi Tom

Well, with a total of 2 to choose from I guess you didn't have much choice about shooting position :wink:

A nicely taken shot, whites are a bit hot but difficult to avoid on Puffins on bright sunny days. Maybe crop to a squarer format and remove the dark and out of focus area to the right hand side.

cheers

Nice to get a good glimpse of both the birds and their habitat.
I like the inclusion of the Thrift in the two corners.
