Very nice. I like the space in the first one and feel the second is too tightly cropped. What are you shooting and what venue?

Awesome shots indeed. I'd love to see one, and to capture one on film...even better! Well done! I really need to get out on a boat and do some seabird watching.

Thanks everyone! I was very pleased when I got home and got to see these photos! :)

I also feel that the 2nd one is to tightly cropped, but unfortunately that's how the picture came out (the right edge anyway). This was taken on a whale watching vessel and the bird was passing in front of us. It kept flying and I wasn't quick enough to get that second shot centered. I'm still pretty satisfied with it overal though. :)
