Canada Goose in flight
An image I took yesterday at Slimbridge after the conference. I must say that I was surprised that more people didn't attend. I think all who went would agree that all the speakers were excellent and a tremendous show of images. It made me think I'd either better start improving or pack up altogether!
500mm
exp: 1/100 @ f8 iso 200

Yes Phil, I'm sure we passed each other during the day. Unfortunately, as much as I enjoy meeting up with other photographers, I'm afraid I always feel a bit uncomfortable introducing myself to people. Quite strange really, because when I do know someone I'm a right chopsy git (or at least so the missus tells me). Next time our paths cross I shall endeavour to hit you over the head as you suggest and you may kick me in the rear to attract my attention!

Not yet Dave, though I almost stopped to pick up a fox off the M4 on the way home ! However, I have put my Lee Grads up for sale.

A superb image, like it very much.
