Lovely shot - and this is crying out for a slow shutter speed imo - try about 1 sec maybe just less and you should be able to get the dipper sharp and that waterfall nice and velvety.
Hi David,
I like everthing about this one,with such an interesting and photogenic habitat it certainly pays to show a good glimpse of it, as you have done here.
Really like the way the water has picked up the reflected blue sky too.

Hi Mark
Thank you for the comments, re the water I am not a lover of the 'velvety' water look as IMO it just looks odd and not at all natural. I always try and get the water to look as close to what the eye sees and with fast flowing water 1/160 is usually about right!

Beautiful David. Great balance between size of subject and environment. Right up my street!

It's nice to see a shot with a bit more context instead of the usual C/Up.
Nice one
