The tight frame seems to suit the shot well :cool:

Great sharpness in and around the eye area, and a sense of motion via the wing tip.

Oh and then theres the added stuff called snow :smile:

Love it :toast: :toast:

Nice shot John. We were there last month, total chaos as about 300 descended, talk about a feed frenzy! MKIII could just not cope :frown:

Good to see you managed to get a sharp image, format works well :toast:

This would be wonderful without the snow; but with it - Wow! Wonderful shot! Was it taken from the new tower hide?
