    Default Grey seal watching an incomming storm

    This is from last year march. I went to Donna Nook te get shots of these animals in some nice light. Instead I caught them just before an incomming storm. At the time I didn't really like it but looking at it now displays the harsh environment these seals live in quite nicely I think. Hope you like it.

    Great composition and dramatic light. It could go a tad brighter for my taste.

    A fine compostion and I love the dark brooding skies. Nice use of flash to balance your exposure. Overall the image seems a bit dark. Fine capture here.

    Interesting composition, I like your vertical choice. Agree it could look a little lighter...

    I really like the great expanse shown here. The dramatic sky and that lonely beach make the image pretty special.

    An excellent image that can be made better by making it a little lighter. The proportions of the sky and sand are just right as well as the placement of the seal.

    Sorry Krijn, this doesn't work for me as the contrast looks a bit too artificial.....did you blend two exposures here?
