But perhaps the shot would have been improved with a 30% shift to the right. The rock texture is great, and the rough sea could be said to be distracting. But I notice you mention the zoom was maxed out, so I’m not too certain how you might improve the image much more. The blur actually seems to give weight to the water. And as you’ve also mentioned about the Cormorants, that gives a nice indication of the scale of the sea.
I love being beside water and could watch it indefinitely. The mid stride Curlew is a great shot. i can recall hearing their calls when I was very young.
Hmm, I’ll bet that Sea Otter was warmer that you guys were. On a cold and windy day, the sea is often a preferable habitat.
