Sweet shot Rob. Your exposure looks right on. The eye in the adult and the plummage patterns in the young bird are super. Great sharpness and BG too. Well done.

That is lovely. I especially love how their positions mimic each other and the clarity in the eyes. That one little feather flipped up on the youngsters head gives it an extra touch of sweetness.

Nicely composed image Rob. Beautiful detail in the birds and sharpness has been maintained throughout the image by using f10. Graham

Congrats on the EP! These birds are usually seen far far offshore on the coldest winter days around here so it's great to see them upclose and personal like this
