CommentI'd watched this bird make a few passes at the back of the boat and liked the way it banked into the wind. I was keen to try and capture this movement with Tasman Island and some of the ocean in the background.

I didn't quite get as much ocean within the frame as I would have liked but very happy nonetheless with this shot of this southern ocean vagrant.
