Cheesedale's Finest
After a morning small mammal trapping on the southern edge of Stoke-on-Trent we decided to nip over to Cheadle (aka Cheesedale) in the afternoon to do a quick Water Vole survey. This little fellow obliged.

Small crop for composition. Bright lump above vole cloned out.

Techs:
E-520, 50-200 + 1.4x TC, ISO 400, 1/80th @ F5

Very nicely done Paul. I love these guys, they always remind me of mini-beavers.
See you at Gigrin.

Right out in the open and not a bit of vegetation to see. You are so lucky Paul.
Well done. :toast:
