As their chick looked on, this pair of Skuas fought over a scrap of food. After the contest ended, the victorious Skua fed the chick. The image was captured on Saunders Island, the Falklands.
Excellent story telling image, with action. Good choice on DOF, as even the chick is sharp enough to work here.
In a perfect world, would prefer the chick was a bit less blocked by the adult, but of course in a different position, it might have introduced other issues, such as completely out of DOF, etc.
The bokeh of the bg is a bit busy. I might consider running a gaussian blur or lower the contrast a bit, and even crop off `10% or so from the top.
