Fight or flight - Buller's Albatross, The Snares : Subantarctic Islands Choose Print Size:75cm x 50cm giving us a close-up experienceThis is one of my favourite species of Albatross to photograph. The Buller's Albatross only nest in the New Zealand Subantarctic Islands region. This group were fishing against the towering rocky coastline of North East Island in The Snares. I love the late afternoon light here, contrasting against the dark shadows of the rocky cliffs. SKU SI3642 Pricing shown for Standard 2: 3 crop. Panoramic 1: 2 crop also available.
