The humans asked if they can take portraits now, so remember to show your best side.

Having never seen a Puffin, Peter, I am truly enjoying your series. Great portraits and nicely done!

3

Me too! The shots are wonderful and the subdued BGs are so perfect!

4

Love all of these - especially the head-on ones.
Great poses and colours - a great series.

5

OK, Peter. This is just no fair. All these wonderful puffins on display and all your shots are excellent.

6

These are so cool Peter! I really love the incoming flight image. Puffins are some of my wife’s favorite birds. Right up there with Star Wars Porgs. . . .

7

All great capture of the Puffins. An enjoyable series. I like the first one for the direct eye contact.

Hi Linda, Diane, Sandy, Dennis, Ed & Allen. Dennis you humble me with you comment and I am glad you all like the Puffin’s and Razorbills, because there is more to come. Thank you for your comments.

As others have said, this is an excellent series but a lot of fine posing, great detail, superb backgrounds, and nice interactions. You are very lucky to have been able to do this. While I have seen puffins before, I have never been able to get this close safely.

Hi David
Thank you for your comment. I was ever lucky to get the last ticket for June 6. The booking is open in March and the seats are sold out in an hour.
