Spectacular - I LOVE the gannets - having photographed them extensively for 5 days last year. I thought I got all the poses there were - but you came up with very different and great ones!

You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.

I particularly like no. 4. Very unusual pose!

All are of course perfectly executed.
