    This is another image from my session with the fulmars. This pair were nearer the top of the cliff in amongst the overhanging ivy.

    That's different Will seabirds and Ivy,like the puffed out neck feathers on the calling bird which look like they have plenty of detail in the white's.

    I think you've done a really good job showing this rare species in its nesting environment. I like your composition and this image works well to depict their behavior and environment.

    Hi Will . Another good action shot. I reckon it could do with a tiny bit more punch to it. Maybe my gear.
    Cheers

    Nice shot Will, I sense the exposure was a little tricky. I like the composition and your vantage point looks good.
    The brightest whites are a bit hot and I would suggest you bring up the shadows a little, it makes for a slightly warmer looking image WDYT?
