Falkland Islands 2016.  Interesting to note that the male is white in color while the female is dark brown.

A great shot of the pair with opposite wing positions, Jake.  The land and water provides a great sense of place. Also, an interesting note on the gender coloration of this species.

Very nice detailed image of this pair with great wing positions at the same time.  Background gives a great view of their habitat.
