Beautiful birds, captured with excellent DOF. TFS, Mario... In Dutch they're called "Papegaaiduiker".

A fine puffin shot, that curious look-around-look is so typical for them. A fine composition too with the birds of center, maybe you can crop a bit on the bottom to lower them a little. Good short DOF. Nice with the sea in the corner.

Oh very nice , composition with them facing away from each other is very nice . The colour are very clean and rich, and the blurred but still seen back ground give a strong lift to the foreground with the birds.

Ah! Still puffins, my favorite bird. This time the DOF is perfect. We guess the cliff and the sea behing them in the blur, no need to disturb attention from this cute couple. The colors are saturated. The foreground is very sharp. I love this picture.

Great picture, by focusing only the main target ( the birds) you created a great nature moment. Looks like National Geographic image!!
Well done.

Wow! Amazing photo! You have captured the puffins very well. I love the depth of focus, and particularly love how you have managed to make the puffins (and the cliff on which they sit) so sharp and clear, with such an abstract, out-of-focus background; it makes it seem like the cliff is just floating there. I also love the vibrancy of the orange on the feet and beak (and even of the white chests), set against the dark, sort of dreary greys, yellows and greens of the background. Marvelous job!
