Smashing through the water at 60 miles per hour, this shot of a gannet in the Shetland Islands in Scotland has scooped a British photographer the Grand Prize in an international photo competition.
Henley Spiers, from Exeter, England, won the whopping $120,000 prize in the HIPA Nature competition.
A gannet is a diving sea bird found in the North Atlantic, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand. A voracious eater of fish, it can dive from heights of 100 feet to dash into the water to catch its prey with its sharp beak.
