Puffin watching
Olympus OM2, Fuji Reala 100, negative scan, digital development in Lightroom. Atlantic Puffins Fratercula arctica are wonderful birds, watching them is pure relaxation (unless you are trying to take photographs of them . . . ). Never disturb, sit down quietly and enjoy. Foula is an outlying island of the Shetlands, in the Atlantic Ocean 30km or so west of the main group; it measures roughly 4km by 6km, and has magnificent seabird cliffs culminating in the Kame of Foula (376m). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foula" rel="noreferrer nofollow en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foula en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_puffin" rel="noreferrer nofollow en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_puffin
