Shakin' Vole
The last of my water vole images from last weekend. This is a follow up to my last upload whereby it was shaking itself off after having a swim.

40D, EF300mm f/4L IS USM +1.4x, f5.6, ISO 200,1/1000 sec, small crop, levels, contrast etc. in CS4

Regards Fran

Good behaviour and action in this one. :cool:
A minor nit is the rear end looks a lot sharper than the head, it's a shame it wasn't the other way round, but still a good one though.

It may not be critically sharp all the way through, as Justin points out, but it is still a super action photo.

Nice action and the captured water drops are a bonus.... agree the focus appears a little to the rear... but it is still good to get this as I know your camera was not set to the higher frame rate :wink:
