Hi Guy,

This is a cracking in the environment shot! You did well to capture it in under ten seconds. Looks tack sharp and I love the catchlight in his eye! Love the setting too!

You would have thought he would have gone for some of those green shoots instead of that dead old twig. Good job he did Guy. You were in the right spot at the right time and nicely caught as well. :toast:

Different as he is neither in or out of the water, and good visable teeth.
