As you know, I love puffins... And I love to create images of them... But as I am not the only one, who loves it, I am always really happy to see some special behaviour of those cute birds.
So I was quite lucky to see this guy, carrying a tuft of grass, I think, he will use it for the nest in his burrow. :)
Made, while the boat on Skomer Island was landing to carry us back... :(

Hi Rosl,
I like the composition and capture. This is a good behavior image. The eye looks a little soft, perhaps you can do a touch of selective sharpening...:) good show...:cool:
Hi Gus, you are right and when I see it now , I think I could also lighten the eye a bit?
Great behavior image. I agree regarding the eye and the color temperature looks a bit high.
Love it! Agree about the eye. You could also clean up the white patches on the rock (near the foot and below the tail). I also find the darker rock distracting. Everything else looks great :-)
Agree about the eye - love everything else.
Regards,
Your English puffin-loving friend!!
A very nice behavior image, Rosl. I like the pose, composition and light. My only addition to the comments above is to consider cloning the ends of the few stems that extend out of the frame to keep all the stems within the frame boundaries. Well done.
