Puffin Love

[Linda Robbins]

When returning to their burrows, puffins often touch bills - a sweet behavior that adds to the great appeal of these cute birds.

Great capture of this moment. I like the interaction, crop and BG. I might raise the color temperature a tad. Where did you make this image?

[Doug Brown]

Terrific photo Linda. Very tender moment you've captured here. Technically excellent too.

Linda, I love this. You've captured a wonderful moment and it is technically superb of course. My first instinct was for a slightly tighter crop but I'm now not sure.

Best wishes.

Thanks Axel. The image was taken on Saltee Island, Ireland this past May,

I only wish the near bird's iris was more evident. Otherwise very delicate and touching (literally!!) composition.

The interaction is priceless in this capture Linda. Great crop and composition as well as a killer BG. Love it !!!!

Very sweet moment with great poses and bg!

I like this one very much, althought I would;ve gone with a diferent crop, I would've probably centered both heads in the frame. Still, as presented it looks great! Congratulaitons!

Gorgeous Linda. Perhaps a hair more of sharpening?
