Lovely action shot. A photographer friend of mine was there and said it is chancy to get bird photos due to frequent fog. You apparently have a clear day. I really like the unusual tilt of the bird that shows us his speed and action. Very nicely done.   Posted: 03/12/2025 14:46:53

A good shot of that bird, excellent detail and attractive colors. It seems that birds are a favorite subject of many PSA-connected photographers. Nothng wrong with that, but those images, in my opinion, are mostly documentary and don't tell much of a story.   Posted: 03/13/2025 19:21:21

A nice bird in flight photo of a cool looking Northern Gannet.   Posted: 03/17/2025 13:51:22

ooooh, nice bird in flight! Love the choppy water in the background which adds to the overall capture. The yellow against the blue provides great complimentary harmony.
Nice shot.
