As I work through all the images I took on vacation, I come across some half-way decent ones of the big Blue.

These were all at 1200mm using a monopod. Canon 1dx2 with EF600 f4 L II with 2xTC.

All are cropped to some degree as 1200mm couldn't bring the subject close enough The last one is cropped the most from 20mp down to 4mp

1/2000 sec, f8, ISO 400 -1EV

Thank you Rick

The composition is largely left as shot. I cropped out some empty space above the bird but left composition as shot. However the last shot's composition is purely based on the crop.
