Have been processing my photo’s from the Farne Islands today so am going to post just a couple, well 4 really 🙂
Firstly a baby Arctic turn shouting for lunch
next up 3 puffins on a wall.
I am not sure why lots of the puffins were just sitting around or walking about with a gob full of fish, not eating them, just keeping them.
At last a half decent flying puffin shot! (I only deleted about 100!)
and finally, ta dah… my first ever dolphin sighting.
I’m afraid my telephoto lens is a cheap and nasty knock-off-nigel, but I can’t afford a proper one, so the overall quality isn’t all that great, sigh, but it’s enough for me to remember what I saw through my eye lens 🙂 Plus with the dolphins I was in the inside of the boat and couldn’t get to the outside bit and had to shoot through the glass window!
Today the sun shone for a little while late this afternoon, so I found some more shadows.

I think that your dodgy lens did a fine job, FR. Great wildlife, and not forgetting the brief nailed too!
Best wishes, Pete.

I like your shadows, but I like the puffins a lot more – especially the ones filled with fish and just hanging . . . the one in the middle, OOF, is what really makes the pic – where’s MINE??????

My kind of image. Invites a nap, good book and coffee. In that order, I think.
