Dunluce Seal - Co. Antrim

I think this is the common seal and quite a young one which I photographed last Nov under Dunluce Castle. After making my way down a slippery slope I noticed him on the rocks below. He was moving quite fast over those large rocks to reach the water but I seized the opportunity to include him in my composition.

It all happened very quick with no time for filter holders and fine adjustments etc. Holding a grey grey filter to the lens to help balance the exposure. ISO was set to 200 I managed to compose a suitable composition with the Castle above.
