There's nothing wrong with any of those Neil - what were you worried about? The close-up of the pup is my favourite.

You guys have got some nice shots here.
You can see the Seals are really stressed out by all the attention 
Nice to see wildlife accepting out presence as not being a threat. Was the same when I've been out on the mud flats a few years back, respect their space and there's not problem.

Dave P. | I not what happened but I got home Sunday night and didnt like ANY of them but going through them yesterday and Monday I had trouble picking which ones to use! I don't think I got that 'killer' shot but that just means I'll have to go again next year  |

Always sit on them a while first - or raid the trash bin next day....

Nice set of shots Neil and a bit of sunshine too, makes a big difference I think.
Thinking about another trip this weekend, but the weather doesn't look that promising, so might give it another week. |

Acher | A good point there. I think having a couple of nice days photography this week improved my opinions of my photography. I think I ended up keeping more than I deleted! |

Plus seals tend to just lay there so a fast shutter speed Isn't required. So if you do go and the weather turns cloudy it wont be a total loss | | | |
