Was trying to click when the bird was on the rock. All of a sudden it decided to flee. It was unexpected flight so hurried myself to click this one. Hope it turned out ok.
Hi Ken, again, there's a slight tilt in the horizon. Other than that a very surprising shot. The yacht race (which one? It's way too early for the Fastnet race) attracts the first attention, but then the bird comes into view, creating an even more appealing subject. The combination is excellent. Great shot! (only maybe a slightly smaller aperture could've increased this photo)
