This was a very shallow dive, the splash is the entry point into the water.

Javea Port. Photographing this Northern Gannet reminded me of photographing the falcons at the terminal. This is the first Gannet I have seen this season. A few come to the Meditteranean coast for the winter. This one would fly in a large circle and then quickly turn and dive. The challenge was to capture the dive and the catch.

Thanks to the multiple fly-bys , I was able to practice my focusing several times and finally captured a front-on image in focus.
