Atlantic puffin

Full frame because of the fact that this fellow became verry close after landing.

I like the soft light and clean BG and wish for a bit more head turn towards you and would sharpen the bird more.

[Paul Kusmin]

wow, i'm always amazed by these birds and you've captured their beauty quite nicely here.
it's a noble pose; staring off into the distance, but a head turn as Alex mentioned would bring the viewer in and make it more personal.
Looks pretty sharp from here but a bit more wouldn't hurt.

Good view of the back and crossed primaries, but a better head angle is in definite order. Good job with the techs...

[Ted Scalzo]

I would like to see the overall image a little brighter. The background makes for an interesting setting.

[Harshad Barve]

this is lovely image , better HA would have made it grand

Bird could be a bit brighter and looking at you. Wish the white-wash in the LRC would be toned down a bit.

But great sharpness and composition. Congrats, JR

[Kiran Poonacha]

Beautiful, never seen this angle, showssthw back and wings well, wished for a better HA, congrats...

[Art Peslak]

Nice backside shot of a puffin. I agree that it could be a little brighter and a little more of a head turn.

[Danny Laredo]

These Puffins are stunning...
Good bg and I too would wish for a bit more space all around.
