Hawkes Point Mini Sea Watch

Went across Hawkes Point for some surfing pictures but by the time my stupid surfer pals got me there it was to late, tide to high. I stood for a while and noticed some Gannets fishing just offshore further up towards Carbis Bay. So I went up there instead. Although subject distance was someway off and the light was crap, I did manage some record shots. All below I will need help on a couple especially the fish???

Some lovely shots there Bob grew up in Carbis Bay and used to fish at Hawkes Point. Only A guess but could be a sunfish. Maybe someone better experienced in fish may know better.

The thought came, these pictures if compared to videos would certainly look better. Very nice shots, Bob!
