Puffin gate

[Rosl Roessner]

This is not the typical puffin portrait, but a kind of puffin "action" picture.
I love the one walking under the natural gate.

Don't know the problem, why does the image not appear here?

We are having some hosting issue, Rosl, thanks for your patience!

I think this is an amazing image, and I enjoyed looking at it very much. Love the interaction--and there is a lot going on to be sure!
It all comes together quite well for me. Sure--there are a few things like the oof greenery and partial bird that one might wish was not there--but it is a winner in my book!

Lovely image Rosl. I liked the 'walking under the arch' too. As such it is a good frame, but an alternative experiment would be to just keep the 2 individuals (the one under the gate & one adjacent to him) & crop the rest. This might bring more emphasis on 'walking under the gate' action.
