Havn't been around for a while. Managed to get out in the past few weeks to the Bass Rock on the Forth and got these Gannets. Comments more than welcome. I hope you enjoy.

WOW - the second shot is beautiful - the water in the pic tells me the story about the bird - I love it. The colors and composition are perfect, very sharp - great shots.

Great captures county man. I am off to a rock in the north Atlantic for ten days next week. I will get my chance to see these guys and more. Can't wait.

Thanks much appreciated. I need to spend a bit more time on the white as its a bit bright but I am pleased with it.

I hope you have as good a time as i did. If you are shooting of a boat as these were I would recommend a poly bag to protect the camera. Mine got soaked and covered in salt but fortunately survived. Good luck on your trip.
