Thanks all.
I'm really glad that you liked them, one or two were spoiled by not keeping the horizon level, so I binned a couple..

They were taken last night about 1015pm. I used two of my lens. one was my 170x500mm.. and then used my 18x80mm kit-lens with a polarizor on..

When I got to where I took the photos, there was an otter feeding off shore, it was back lit with the sun setting, it was feeding just off the point where you see the rocks in the distance.. the sea was almost flat, and fish were dappling on the surface, the gulls and arctic terns had a great time feeding off them.. the sea was a rich golden colour..

They were all taken just off the edge of my village.. :thanx: for looking at them..

That's one angry-looking sky goldeneye - it's been a bit gentler down here.
