Nice one Ian :wavey:

At least the overcast gives plenty of detail through lack of shadow - don't knock it!

Very nice capture indeed and one I'd like to have in my library. However, I think the whole reflection will have taken this to another level.

Thanks for the replies :toast:

As regards the reflection I did get the full reflection but unfortunately there was a OOF stem of grass that he had been chewing going across part of it :frown:

Maybe next time :smile:
