Puffin Sheltering in Place

[Kyle Jones]

Here is an image from Iceland that I hadn't processed before. That was probably because the bird was partially obscured by the grass and it wasn't doing much that was interesting. Today I decided that I kind of liked the warm backlight and sheltering in place is definitely on my mind.

Any thoughts are welcome.

The backlighting really brings out the colors in the bird's beak. Certainly a curious looking bird.

Puffins have marvelous markings, yours shows them up close.

Kyle, you can hardly go wrong with these beautiful birds. Backlighting and sharp pose are great. Very nice!

That backilighting is so cool Kyle! It definitely works. And great job with that shallow DOF.
