Another great bird that is taking off. I had to scare him to take off, then it surprise me when I was relaxing. No tripod and my camera is quiet heavy. I crop the picture a little. 200mm lens.

I like very much the contrast of color between the white and the blue of the sea, you managed an excellent exposure since nothing is overexposed on your picture. The composition works well also
Good job !

Very nice and your crop is good, leaving room for him to take off in

Michel
very nice backlighting through the primaries here. Great diagonal across the frame too. The head is just a tad soft. You should tri 1/1000 to 1/2000 to nail it, but it is trial and error. The overall impact is good.

Very good. The white contrasts very well with the deep blue sea. Well done, I bet this wasn't easy, juudging by your note.

Excellent image of this bird, Michel, splendid!

Very nice capture Michel. I like the composition and you almost avoided to burn his feathers. Well done.

Perfect angle in your shot, Michel,
good colours and actio !

Magnifique image d'un décollage avec virage à droite. très jolies couleurs. L'intantané est parfait, beau travail.

composition and colours very good.
congrat.

Very nice contrast with the white bird and the blue water. Very nice action shot, so graceful, yet not graceful at the same time. Well done.

Le contraste entre l'oiseau, majstueux et l'océan derrière est très bon. Cela donne beaucoup de force à cette image.

Nice capture Michel, good composition, very nice job.
