- Sending one of these (mic, not camera) to @geekanoids to have a play with and let us know what they think http://t.co/oMdKC1XbZX
- Not quite sure how this #Fujifilm #HS10 managed to stop this fast-moving subject in its tracks - that's some skill! http://t.co/I2Vz8rGj80

Fantastic picture and deserves a prize even if just for the journey you took to get it. Thats one heck of a trip from Dunblane. I would love to take Unda to the Galapagos Islands.
So long and thanks for all the fish

An impressive and very clear shot of beautiful creatures. Must have been an amazing experience with wonderful sights to see. The bird comes with full crop so no action required

A stunning image George that would not look out of place in National Geographic. Amazing colours and textures. Like the loww angle and the stunning detail. Very well done and best of luck.

Hello George. Thanks for your comment. I have looked long and hard and I do see what you did. After playing with the image a bit I decided that a rotation of 1/4 degree clockwise is actually required to true it up to the river surface and to achieve a perfect line through the dome. There is a bit of perspective distortion to the right which gives converging verticals. Didn't see it before but now it does look wrong. However, once I post a comp entry I leave it warts and all unless someone thinks the content is offensive. Your engineer's eye is still spot on.
Never seen these birds before so its a bit of a treat. As always a nicely chosen image for the theme. White birds are tricky to get good exposure so this is nicely done. Good detail in the rocks too.
All the best for the New Year
