Lovely sharp image Dale. Can't make my mind up about the comp though. Technically very good.

Looks great to me Dale. Wonderful detail. It's a pretty good shot of the fly never mind the SF.

Nice detail Dale, a big crop? Looks a little noisy?

Agree with Andy on this one and also agree the comp just doesn't fit right, maybe a bit top heavy..?

Is it a crop, Dale? If it is then you should put it in your specs, if not then it's very noisy for iso400.
Beautiful bird though, so well captured :toast:

That fly certainly looks resigned to its fate. :eek: Excellent BIF capture.
