Picture was taken from a small boat off the shore of Bonaventure Island. There were birds every where. Mid morning, the sun was difficult on the whites.

Hey Rene,
Considering it was mid morning and moving boat....not too bad! I like the placement of the flying gannets in contrast to the ones sitting on the cliffs. I would be tempted to remove the flying one at the cliff edge......but not that distracting. Must have been quite the sight!

nicely done, rene! from a moving boat is tough. and you did well with the mid morning light.

I think the light helps here to add depth to the cliffs with the shadows and gives it a nice graphic look. Well done Rene.
