On saturday morning the light at Helgoland was perfect for flightshots. And besides the "regular" framefilling flightshots I wanted to get something different. So I tried to get some distant shots from this male coming back to his nest. Thanks Bart for letting me use your EF2.0II!!!

Perfect framing for two small birds in the frame, like the diagonal cliff top and the birds looking towards each other. Very good environmental image.

Excellent story telling image. I love the mate on the nest waiting for the incoming bird. :)
