Hi folks got the chance to photograph this scene without stressing the animals , just by luck .
As i was based in one spot to take all sorts of images from other individuals , then the mother with the youngster came closer and closer .So i stayed and waited , luckily they moved themselves in the right position for me .
Thank you my seal friends ...... for your help to create such image.
Grey Seal ; Helgoland ; Germany
Canon EOS 1Dx MK2
EF 500 IS L with 1,4 TC
Tripod
F 8 ; Iso 6400 ; 1/800 sec ; man exp + 1EV ( sometimes i kept the SS lower to get a lower Iso )
Processed with DPP 4.6 and PS CC 2017 ; slight crop from top and RHS for composition .
Thanks for watching and commenting to my previous posting .
Hi Andreas - This works quite well. The content and comp are great. I like the juxtaposition of the soft fur of the pup against the coarse sand covering the mom. Dof works and very nice detail against the muted tones of the sea in the bg. Nice one.
