Water rail after a night out ?
My legs have been like this a few times in the old days !
He got in a right mess on the ice. Had a hell of a job with this shot as it was a vertical really tight crop. Had to add some canvas all round. Got in a mess but its the funny side picture not a cup winner. Quite a low angle for me 2 !The hide had about 16 inches of water in the bottom.

No but if I bet I'd get a shot of Prince Phillip strangling his dog and there'd be a twig in the way !! :biggrin: :wink: :wink:
Cheers
