Nice photo, well caught.
It's just a bit noisy.
TFS.

A classic gannet shot, superb.
I don't think its noisy.
I lik ethis one so much it becomes a favourite.

Nice image, Pam. Shows how sleek his body is in flight. Nice work.

Great capture caught at his level. The BG is effective and the overall presentation excellent. Great post.

Pam, your posts just keep getting better and better. Excellent work well done.

Wow beautiful shot you share with us now. I like it a lot. The only things I have to say, is that it could be better if it has more space on the left side between the border of the picture and the bird itself.

good one. i like the shots of birds in flight. of beautiful birds in special.

This is a really good shot. But I am surprised that with an overcast weather, with no sun, and a ISO 400 you manage to have a correct exposure with 1/2000 shutter speed and f6.7. But well done anyway.
