Atlantic Puffin

[Geoffrey Montagu]

Captured this portrait in 2016 on Latrajarg cliffs in Iceland. What else is there to say about this warm, friendly, full of personality, great looking creature. C&C welcome.

Hi Geoff, great portrait and close up. These guys have so much detail and colours on their faces and you have shown all that. Nice clean BG too. Having said that, I'm seeing a yellow cast in this.

Lovely portrait. Full of character!! Maybe 10-15 % more room top and right would work out even better, but still an all-around solid portrait.

Thanks Stu. I see what you might think is a yellow cast, and it may well be, but I may have added a tad too much global warmth. Here's a repost with a yellow cast removal.
