Hi Will, very nice capture, sharp, and i like your positioning of the gannet. I especially like the drops of water coming off the bird. Well done!

Nice exposure on the golden eye Bill and you captures the iridescence as well. Sharp and i like the water drops as well. That's some shutter speed! ...
