The one who's stealing all the food!!!!
At first I was enjoying this little fellow. But he just won't quit eating :biggrin: There's nothing left for the Rail and Snipes.

He looks very well fed :biggrin: Very nice capture too. I hope he leaves some food for your Water Rail.

Subjective with the tail cut off, but I too would like it included. Saying that, it's great to view such detail which would be lost at this size having to make the subject smaller. Nicely done :toast:

Missing tail aside - I think it is a 'cracking' shot with a great low angle of view!

What a cracker, I would add a touch more contrast, but the comp and the fact that you got him squeaking really makes this. :toast:

A cracking shot made all the more appealing by that reflection and lovely warm, but soft tones throughout. :toast:

Don't think I can add any more that has not been said before, except the tail really does not worry me at all. For me the whole focus is on the face & reflection.The tail is well down the list IMHO :smile:

pas de queue mon cul! It's a cracking image and all about the animal and it's reflection. For my money, there's enough of the tail showing and to get more in would have meant a much smaller image. Fine work.

For me the tail wasn't a problem and I was curious about what you might think. I'm glas you like it.
