Absolutely superb series of images Murray – there is a detail in these that can get overshadowed when represented in colour.

Thanks very much David. Yes, I think there is also a different feel to the colour versions and the boundaries of reality are different in mono.

Love the first straited cara cara, and the sky above ‘rockhopper penguin colony’.
