I think this is your best capture to date CVT - excellent details and the water splashes are really nice.

Your bat images are spectacular, and I agree that this is the best yet. Great pose, superb detail, and the open mouth and water drps add a lot. The subtle reflection of the dock is also nice.

Charlie, keep this up and you'll have the raw material for a very fine photo book on the flight of bats. I'm totally impressed with the detail on those wings, exquisite. :toast:

Spectacular image, especially the large version. The exposure is just right. Love the reflection and the droplets.

Very impressive Charlie. Super exposure and the detail on the wings is great. I love the way the water droplets are lit up so they stand out against the dark background. :toast:
