A Northern Fulmar flies up the cliffs of Westfjords in Iceland.  Background is rocks and water.  The bird is close to vertical as he approaches the top of the cliff where I am standing.  Nearly full frame.

ISO 400, 400+1.4 X, F5, 2500th, Sony A1

I would never have guessed the angle of flight if you hadn't told us, David!  Brilliant shot.  Love it!

As both Carol and David point out I also would not have guessed the angle of flight unless it was pointed out. Terrific focus and overall bird in flight image.
