Nice one. I'm not sure of the BG colour. Looks a bit artificial. Still nice as it is.

Hi John

Yes the BG colour a little unusual but still a very nice shot!

Very nice image, but a little in danger of 'looking like a studio' shot with that bg. What is it?

Hi Guys
thanks for your comments. The BG is natural dead yellow grasses and reeds.

I like it - bg is great and doesn't look studio to me - lovely shot, maybe just like the rest of the tail if being nitpicky,
