Diving with seals, Northumberland UK

Hi all,

I was lucky enough to have an amazing encounter with seals whilse diving at the Farne Islands a couple of weeks ago. We were blessed with fine, sunny weather, and a large number of very playful and active seals. They behaved in typical rowdy adolescent fashion, pulling at fins, cameras, strobes and anything else they could, and just plain having a good time with these strange bubble blowing mammals that had "blundered" into their domain!

Below are some of the pictures of the day:

I'm still editing, but the full gallery is here

Enjoy! Feedback as always, very welcome

Beautiful, I love the composition of the first B&W image.

first is my fave as well, cute little fellas

I love the second one. The seal seems to be saying, "HI! Wanna play?"

It might not be the most artistic of your offerings...but the seal seems to be speaking.

I love seal pics. thanks for sharing. i like the one on your website of the open mouth.

Playful little guys, aren't they. They are all great images, but I really like the second one best.

I really love the one of the seals mouth - it shows them as the are inquisitive and playful!

It's always nice to me to see good cold waters pictures.

My vote goes for the second picture.

Thanks for sharing.
