A really lovely image-with great detail in the feathers, I might try to tone down the background abit as the highlights distract abit, I was out yesterday watching the dipper on my local river but have no idea how to get near him as he only seems to perch in very exposed areas- i guess if it easy it wouldnt be a challenge :toast:

Wonderful shot Phillip.

The highlights in the background are a little distracting but an excellent image all the same. :toast:

Great shot - the only obvious minor nit has already been mentioned - really envious of this one!
