Is this asbestos?

I think the soffit is asbestos. I am just taking it down, but is this fluffy type material also?

 

It seems a lot like cotton. Thanks,

@PeterW thanks I will take the fluffy stuff out then. Yea the cement board came up on a survey as asbestos cement when I bought the place so I'm taking the precautions removing it. Unfortunately I did drill a hole in one side of the soffit without realising so hopefully I will be okay! Cheers.

I used to drill pilot holes in asbestos sheet fir a fixing and Health and safety got involved (rightly so) and they recommended spraying the drill with water whilst I drilled to stop airborne particles. I am still here ?
