I got these this morning before some much needed rain began. The cloudy conditions made it a little challenging to get the right amount of detail without getting too much grain.

These birds have been so difficult, I hope that once I get decent shots, everything else will seem easy. That may just be wishful thinking.

I had to lighten these up a little in post. Feel free to make suggestions as to how I can improve future shots.

You got great captures! I spent several hours one day, trying to get anything. Nothing. I know how tough this is.

The only suggestion I have is that you get out there and take some more. Oh and be sure to post them here.

Puffin Loc: Key Largo,Florida

This are stunning! They are my favorite birds. Don't see many in Key Largo, but do have a male and female that come to my feeder. I haven't been successful at photographing them. Any suggestions? :thumbup:
