Your usual great standard John. That twig reminds me of a radio control antennae on model cars etc. (is that your secret

Sits very well in the frame John,exposure looks very good especially in the blacks throughout the whole bird. Nothing against baited set ups, but it must be said these pool set ups look very natural.
