For me that bright light is putting character to the pose. Like a blast or a shade of light in the background. If you know what I mean.
Something like a backlight to accentuate the contours? I see what you mean, but what the portrait mode produced here looks fairly artificial in my opinion.

Thats even better than your last one, the gull gives the scale too.
Fantastic shot, well done.
I hope you used a zoom, I certainly wouldn't want to get that close to one of those.

Great, and I love that you've included a bird for scale.

Thanks very much guys. Yes, the shot was taken was 500mm - hence the tight framing.

It would have been nice to get in closer but apparently that isn't a safe thing to be doing but I would've tried if I could've...I guess that's why the Mrs says I have a "reckless abandon" approach to photography.

But at least you have more than justified the investment in that 500mm prime.
