Dapper Seal

Gallery: WildlifePosted February 28, 201067 views4 comments

This image is of a harbor seal in Duxbury Massachusetts. He was taking advanyage of an unseasonably warm day to sun himself. I think he must have escaped from the circus. He was striking many fun poses.

Nikon D90 Tamron 200-500 f6.3
750mm f6.3 1/800 sec.

A pleasing portrait of this guy. Nice light and catchlight and the blue water makes a nice BG.

Greg:
Nice shot from a very low angle. Were you on your belly like it

Like the blue BG and the colorful rocks too.

Very sweet Greg.

Lovely subject, super angle, great light and nice color scheme. The only thing I am not too sure about is the composition. Maybe a tighter crop by removing some from the left will balance it better by bringing the eyes more towards a rule of thirds cross point.
