    The Gannets have now returned to the Bass Rock...This is the closest I have seen them come to the shore in my home town. This was captured from my balcony(a change from Gulls)...There must be plenty fish close to shore, which is a good thing.

    Nice sky BG and nice pose. A bit small in the frame for me.

    Nice pose with some nice clouds. Like the framing and the light.

    The dramatic sky makes this image.
    Nice wing position.
    The problem with gannet shots from land is that they are always looking away at the ocean (away from us landlubbers) for fish.
    Obviously a natural and proper natural thing but I wish they would look at the photographer every once in a while!
    I would move the gannet to the left of the frame a little bit.
