Just A Kiss
Uploaded: January 09, 2018 09:07:55 | Entered: January 09, 2018 09:09:25
These Cormorants were enjoying each other's company and seemed to be ignoring us. I loved this pose, because it appears almost as if they are about to kiss! Taken with Canon Mark II, Canon 100-400 mm L lens at 400 mm, handheld. Settings are f9.5, 1/250, ISO 500.
