    I made another visit to the Farne Islands last weekend - I can really recommend this location.

    All comments welcome.

    Jon,

    I like the incoming landing pose. It looks underexposed to me due to the sun angle that comes from the back. Little fill flash would have helped IMHO.
    Thank you for sharing.

    I think this is an interesting pose kind feels like the bird is jumping out to grab you. The bird appears sharp but, it does seem to be under exposed. I agree with Lorant that with the sun angle fill-flash would be something to consider next time.

    great pose and nice wing positions, fish adds to the image.

    Was this underexposed? It still looks a bit dark and has a lot of color noise for such a low ISO.

    Thanks for the feedback, I did deliberately underexpose to allow for the bright highlights on the "shoulders". I have other shots to follow (terns puffins and razorbills) I suspect you will think they are a little underexposed also:(:eek:. Never mind next year I will have to take a better beamer and a battery pack and my Canon 500mm:)
