Dorian:
Nice full up pose, soft light shows subtle details in feathers, climbing flight path helps.
I might be tempted to tinker with increasing the contrast just a bit, give it a bit more pop. Personal taste.

Fantastic flight image Dorian Love the soft light with the grey background. Perfect wing position. Just love puffins. TFS
Dorian:
I had tried a tweak of your original, and it ended up almost exactly like your redo. I do think it is a bit more dramatic, without looking over the top.
Cheers

Thanks for the suggestion. I applied the same settings to the downstroke in an adjacent frame and combined them to get this - my first composite. Sure, it's a lie, but it's fun to see the two strokes in the same frame.

Awesome!! The repost looks great, and the composite is really well done and quite fun. I love the pop of colour form the faces and feet against the monochrome background.

nice Frame Dorain, I like upstroke better for birds with shorter wings. nice exposure and details
