Olympus E-1, 150mm f2, iso 200 1/2500 @ F4, monopod, full frame

I really like the painterly effect of the water in this shot, the main subject is a bit so so, but again wearing a business suit, I am not going to go chin to chin with goose guano......
I really like the texture of the water, a bit central in the frame, but nice colours.
I see from previous posts that you shoot alot in Regent's Park, don't know if you know or not but if you enter at York Bridge and look up at the tall white building with all the aerials on (you will be roughly behind maddame tussaud's) there are Peregrine nesting there on the ledge just under the aerials, it is a university of westminster building, this time of year you may seem some displaying behaviour or they may already be on eggs, in June/July the RSPB set up a watchpoint with scope's etc, a very good day out!!
Yep, I actually saw both Peres displaying from the 8th floor of our building at Euston station complex yesterday afternoon, should have been concentrating on a training course, but the the view out of the window was much more interesting........

Great shot Mike, exposure spot on IMO. I keep meaning to pay Regents Park a visit one weekend.
