It's been a while since the last update - have been enjoying 3 weeks of holidays, including a trip to Crete and Santorini. Some new photos added of our travels, and a few more wildlife shots have been added too.
Hope to have some nice Grey Seal pup encounters soon as they are now being born nearby...

I have recently got myself an iPhone 4S - it has a very good camera, and some of the apps are great for creative photography, or giving old photos new life. It's not much use for wildlife photography though - which is probably a good thing :-)

Also today, I found out I have a 'highly commended' image in the 2012 British Wildlife Photography Awards - I'm very pleased! Maybe next year I might win something - must keep trying!
Here's the image..

Still managed to find an Otter though, and got some great views of Gannets diving very close to the shore.
Here's the silhouette of the remote Shetland island of Foula as the sun was setting behind it.

Had a quick look for Otters after tea and found one in th ebay below the house - still too dull for any decent photos :-( maybe tomorrow will be a bit better!

Uploaded more images today of some recent encounters...

Had to make do with a few Puffin photos, and I also took a few of an Otter on the way home. The Otter ones aren't worth uploading as the sun was against me, and also the wind, which made it too risky to try and get in to a better position. Better luck tomorrow maybe :)

Uploaded a few more images today, but still have many more to process to try and fill the site up a bit.

I'll start with an older image - one of my best Otter encounters, and also one of my favourite shots.
