With it's shadow 😉I would prefer the puffin behind not to be there but the puffin in front was too nice not to post.
Thanks for stopping by always appreciated.
Captured on a recent trip to Lands End, Cornwall, UK where I was perched on the high rugged cliffs above the Atlantic Ocean.
One great thing about bracketed photography for HDR is the ability for SO many rendering options in post-processing. I have already processed this image before, but never quite like this one. I hope you enjoy this version of the amazing gift that was this truly awesome sunrise.
20th August 2017 - The last of ACL's 5 new G4 ConRo vessels 'Atlantic Sun' finally makes her maiden call to the Royal Seaforth Container Terminal.
This shot was taken from the gantry of one of the Liverpool 2's massive new five 'megamax' quayside cranes. Many thanks to all at Peel Ports for making this shot possible.
The most beautiful journey in the world!
The Atlantic Road takes you from lush coastal landscapes and heaths to bare rocks along the exposed Hustadvika, where you can see the sun sink into the horizon. This National Tourist Route has been called the world’s most beautiful drive and has been voted the “Norwegian construction of the century”.
The Atlantic Road connects the island of Averøy with the mainland via a series of small islands and islets spanned by a total of eight bridges over 8,274 meters. The road was opened in 1989 and is toll free.
The Atlantic Road has National Tourist Route status, and the entire stretch between Bud and Kristiansund is one continuous experience packed with coastal scenery, culture and history.
The contrasts between a trip on a sunny and tranquil summer day compared to a foam-sprayed journey in a storm from the northwest are huge. But whether the ocean is flat calm or cascading over the road, the Atlantic Road experience will give you memories for life.
I was so pleased to see that the puffins were still at their nesting site because they will be leaving soon to go out to sea for the winter. We met people just a few days after we were there and they didn't see any puffins. Timing is everything! I had an absolutely amazing evening with them when they flew much closer. Actually, they flew in just as we were arriving so 5 more minutes and I could have set up properly. After they started wandering around, no one moved so they would not be disturbed.
I saw a lot of this behavior when the puffins would stretch their neck and raise their head. I don't remember seeing this in previous visits so it must mean something. I tried to search but did not come up with anything. So if anyone knows what this behavior means I would appreciate a comment. Taken at Elliston, Newfoundland.
Thank you for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated.
Spent some time on the Latrabjarg Cliffs (about 6.5 miles long and up to 1500ft about the Atlantic Ocean
Canada Geese and a Military Jet share the Atlantic Flyway in late December. Thanks for the visit and have a great evening.
Fratercula arctica
Probably one of the biggest tourist attractions around the Northumberland coast - Atlantic Puffins are probably as numerous and easy to see from the boat trips here, as anywhere that I have been :)
I'm amazed, watching these young ghost crabs creating their burrows despite (or maybe because of) so many humans trampling by.

A Santa Fe Railway SD45-2 is back on the move, approaching San Francisco Street crossing in Flagstaff, Arizona. On the right, a group of locomotives await assignment on area locals.
Built in 1889, the original Atlantic and Pacific sandstone depot still stands. The structure served as Flagstaff’s passenger station until the big Santa Fe station opened a block to the west in 1926.
