Hey Alfred this one is really good. Terrific action and those fishes in the beak a re a great bonus. Love the contrast of the intense orange color feet against the dark, green BG. very nice compositiona. BTW, another round of noise reduction would help to improve the result. Muy buena!
one sweet image for sure!! they even look fast!! have to take that trip one of these years!!!
I'm drawn in by the BG. I am a fan of multi-coloured, but very blurred BG's. This one works well. The bird is amply contrasted against the BG. Good crop.
Great capture Mr. Al,
I like the capture. You have excellent details and colors...he looks like hes going at a fast clip...:eek::cool:
Like it a lot Al. Looks like a tough capture. It'd be nice if the near wing were in a slightly different position, but I'd be thrilled to have this in my portfolio.

WOW WOW WOW I love puffins!!!
Beautifully composed image Al, The light angle really gives the bird three dimensions and the light coming through the feet is magic. And all against an interesting, contrasting, multi toned BG.
Beautiful composition Al. Fish in beak, the dark BG and those translucent feet really make this work!
Hola, que alegría que sabes castelano, un momento muy bien capturado con buen encuadre, definición y luz.
Un saludo.
Cool pose, details and the fish add to it. I particularly like the translucent feet. I might clone out the dark spots in the BG and agree regarding NR.
as good as it gets Al, excellent shot.
Alfred, It doesn't get much better than that! Great BG colors and wonderful flight position!
Oh I am jealous Alfred. Love this flight image and the fish put it over the top !!! Great flight pose !!!!!
I love this one, not easy to catch that day!
An outstanding image of this guy in flight. I agree about another round of NR, but still very well captured Alfred.
Alfred,
An awesome image. I agree the fish in the beak puts it over the top.
Cheers,
Sabyasachi
Excellent photo, the flight is absolutely stopped and with good composition, my congratulations and greetings.

fantastic action and background!! love it, what a trip lucky you.
It looks like light was not ideal for these kind of shot and you managed to get a great one! Pose and detail are awesome! IMO some noise reduction to the bird would help! Congratualitons my friend!
Frame it up brother Al!! Just fantastic! What in the world took you so long to post this one? Ya hold out!
