    Very nice composition and calling pose, neat BG and head angle. The face looks a bit washed out to me somehow, is this an Atlantic Puff?

    Thank you Fab. I did nothing to make it washed out.
    I took it in Alaska, so it's not Atlantic Puffin.
    It is my first Puffin!

    That's why I asked. It seems very much like an Atlantic, because Tuffed are very different? Hope someone can she light on this. The bill looks a bit different to Atl, though...
    It must have been exciting????

    Nice shot of this horned puffin Haim! Cool pose, nice rock and good BG for the composition I would probably crop a bit of the left and add some room on top if you have it. TFS

    Very nice shot, like the pose with the open bill, good comp, nice rock and bg. Good suggestions of cropping by Krijn. And like he said this is an Horned Puffin.
    A tufted would have black chest and typical yellow tufts, atlantic have an dark bill base and an gray throat. :)

    Nice image of a horned puffin-don't see too many in the forum, as most are Atlantic. Open mouth pose is a big plus, and I really like the overall setting, with the bird standing "downhill" on the rock. I would take a bit off the left, and perhaps reduce the background noise.

    Hi Haim,

    Nice to see one of the Puffin images you created during my workshop. It was great having you along and I hope to visit you someday.

    It is a Horned Puffin.
