Cormorant from Pembrokeshire

[LukeC]

The light wasn't as strong as I'd hoped, and I should have dropped my shutterspeed a bit; I was surprised to find the camera needed ISO3600 for these. So a bit more noise, and less detail than I'd like, but I like the lighting regardless. We also saw a Kingfisher fly across Bosherston, the longest I've seen one in flight (but too mesmerised to lift the camera!) and watched a different Cormorant guzzle a sizeable Perch, which was a treat.

Plenty of nice detail in these Luke - I particularly like the backlighting through the wings on the second shot

Thanks Russ my girlfriend prefers that one as well; for me I prefer #3 for the texture along the top of the wings, but I'm happy with them all.

A nice set of images. Although the back lighting is nice i prefer the 3rd image
