Puffins in Flight 2

 Here are a few more Puffin flight images I took at the Farne Islands in June. Most have now departed the Islands for the open seas and will not be back on their until next Spring. I may try and go back there next year we will see but as I said in a previous post it has to be on a 'must do' list for all wild life photographers and anyone interested in the natural world.

Here are some more images of the Puffins I took in June at Inner Farne Northumberland. These birds are fantastic to photograph and it must go down as one of the most enjoyable days I have had with a camera in my hand. If you get the chance I would urge people to visit there and I am already planning another trip either next year or the year after.

The highlight of my trip to the Farne Islands was seeing and photographing Puffins. Due to the poor weather the day I was scheduled to go  I went the following day and my trip on the Island was only about an hour and and half instead of four hours. It can be slightly overwhelming to be confronted with so many close up photography opportunities and the temptation is to just rattle off shot after shot without thinking about light sun shadow and composition. Fortunately having rattled of loads of shots in the  first half an hour I then composed myself and managed to get some some fairly decent flying Puffin images towards the end of he trip, I will post some of those in my next post. These are some of he images I took of stationary Puffins.
