Looks a perfectly balanced exposure Stu and I like the way the subject pops from the BG - nice one :toast:

Hi Stu,

It was great meeting you today, nice to be able to put a face to a name, thanks for coming over.

The colour is great. The bird really pops from the BG and fill has been executed superbly, shame the other 200 did'nt join him :wink:

Speak soon

Rob
