Northern Gannet Flying Over the Ocean, Delaware Bay

This is, again, an image from my trip to photograph the Northern Gannets. The opportunity was just incredible and I was able to capture many images of the species. In this particular image, a gannet is banking in flight with the ocean in the background. It proved to be very difficult trying to get photographs of them in a pose showing their top during a feeding frenzy, but by standing at the bow of the ship I was able to capture several images of them as they made wide circles around the boat before making another pass for fish at the rear.

  1. Hey Chris,

    Looks like you came away with some great images from your trip!

    This one is by far my favorite. I like the ocean background, and I really like seeing the colorful top side of the Gannet.

    Cheers,

    Ron
