Shrimp Delivery

[Herb Houghton]

Here's an Atlantic puffin returning to it's burrow with a beak full of krill for it's chick. mark IV, 200 f2, iso 200, f4, 1/4000 shot manual from the blind.

Very nice EXP on this one Herb, and what a plus to get him with a beak full of food.

[gail bisson]

Lovely image. Bang on exposure with good detail in the whites and blacks. Love the mouthful of krill. Nice Bg

Fantastic full mouth, like the low angle and good EXP plus detail. Slanting rock work nicely.

[Chad Caswell]

Oh what wonderful bokeh that 200 f2 gives ya' . Nice exposure and timming with the sushi.

[Bill Dix]

Nicely done. Exposure looks great, as do the shrimp. Looks like you might have had the benefit of some thin clouds on this one -- doesn't have the harsh Machias look to me.

Herb, very nice. I like the tension created by the slope. loved those shrimp....very different from the fishes we are used to seeing. IQ looks very good. If mine, I'd have tad more room on top.

[Humberto Ramos]

Like t a lot, the diagonal line of the ground works well...

[Daniel Cadieux]

Very nice!! I too like to see shrimp instead of the usual sand eels (nothing against them, just prefer something different!). Great job with the exposure, and good comp (although I agree with a bit more room above). I love the rock and the diagonal between it and the far BG.

[Karl Egressy]

Very cool shot. Love the beak full of goodies.

[Stu Bowie]

Herb, good placement of the Puffin, although some more room on top will work. Excellent exposure, sharp, and the beak full of shrimp does add a nice touch.

[Art Kornienko]

Killer sharpness Herb, like it a lot. Are most of them banded?

[Herb Houghton]

Thanks for all of the comments and suggestions everyone. About 2 or 3 out of 10 are banded.
