Great pics Rush, the Atlantic seals were very obliging! Must have been lovely to actually be there and see them. :thumb: :D
 
Very nice pics Rush, especially that last one :)

I've hardly seen any seals in the wild before (only on Coquet island in Northumberland), the little baby ones are so funny to watch :D
 
Even at Lizard point seals were seen...so in 2 resorts i have seen 4 seals...remarkably really..want to go to Senna Cove...maybe a basking shark or two weather permitting...The ones at St Ives were staged really as a couple of lads actually had mackeral at hand to feed them ...but they were wild as they did live in a large piece of water ..ie..North Atlantic lol
 
Great pics Rush.

I'm going to start sorting out my pictures from my holiday tomorrow and hopefully upload them on Friday.
 
Nice shots there dude...its amazing that the seals came near ya's at all....what kind of camera did ya use there??
Its also amazing how a few nice pix can inspire people....there's WiZ sortin his pix out and i've been playing around with Serif for most of the evening trying to enhance a few shots i took on a dodgy camera in Egypt last year.
Got very sick over there too but it was worth the trip.

Zzzzz
 
Camera was Nikon D50 with a 55-300mm lens and a old manual Nikon macro lens...Seals were about 25foot away
