Something a bit Different

Instead of my usual outing to Strumble today I decided to join the Monday gang on a seal survey to Aber Felin just below Llanwnda and a mile or so to the west of Pen Anglas. We parked up by the church then made our way down the tracks through the fields until we joined the coast path. A short hop east brought us to a section which overlooks Aber Felin bay. The bay has three pebble beaches and between them and individuals perched on rocks there were a total of nineteen seals with a mix of male/female adults, juveniles and pups. With a keen NE wind catching us head on in our exposed position it wasn't the easiest of shooting locations with the camera getting buffeted about quite a bit. I was happy enough with the results though and have to say I enjoyed the challenge of shooting these lovely creatures at long distance ranging from 600-1,000 ft.
