Weasel
SD10, Sigma 300-800mm @ 680mm.
1/40s, F7.1, ISO400.
I got dizzy tracking it through the log pile and getting it in focus.
The light was not at its best this morning.
Comments welcome.

Well captured Steve :toast:

I know what you mean by these making you dizzy when tracking them lol. Happened with me the other day

A little soft on the face but a shot to be proud of taking, just look at that expression :biggrin:

Steve,

I take my hat off to you tracking this with the SD10. Very well captured.

Now these little fellas are just one of my favourites.
They have got so much energy and are so hyper. You have done well. :toast:

A vertical crop might suit this better ?.

But well tracked :toast:

Hi Steve,

Well captured. I do however agree with Alan about the vertical crop to get rid of some of the space either side of the Weasel.

Regards chris.

Well done to catch this hyperactive little creature... agree with a vertical crop and perhaps a shade more room below for the rest of the virtual body....

Impressive capture of this manic beast. I like the way the background has formed a natural frame.
