C&C always welcome.

Thank you for looking :)
 
Nice capture Tom :clap: The top bird looks just a tad soft but looking at the DOF in the foreground the little blighter looks as if he/she is just and just in the focus, still a good natural composition. Where the hell were you to have blue skies like that? :LOL::LOL:

Thank you - taken on Handa Island, NW Scotland last week. Its the combination of the Wheaters, the flowers and that sky which caught my eye.

Thanks for your comments Mark - much appreciated. Yes its normally a glimpse of blue sky followed by days of horizontal rain so it made a nice change.

Appreciate your comments Ian - very much an opportunist shot because they were together.

Another nice shot Tom. Very natural. We were on Handa last August, I was told there were a few Puffins left. There were but it was that windy that I couldn't get a decent shot on my cheapo tripod. Fantastic place though.
