Sunset puffin
Taken on Shetland earlier in the year.

Thanks for comments on my last post - if they equal the view count this time round it'll be an all time record :wink:

Fine habitat shot there Graham. However I do find the sun a bit bright and I wonder what you would think about cropping out the sky and cropping in a little from the left :wink:

I like it as is Graham. The light from the sun on the water leads your eye to the puffin and makes for a very atmospheric image, you can almost feel the suns warmth as its slips beneath the horizon and hear the crashing waves far below. Great capture, well spotted and composed.
