Another Daub
This is another Daubenton's Bat from last night, I know people will say it should be more to the left, but hey you cant have everything.

I suppose, theoretically, it should be more to the left, but somehow I like it just the way it is.

Hello Dale

No this is perfect and I love the setting and I really like the little bit of Green at the top of the frame, adds to the shot. You really are the best at HSF.

It was great to finally speak and I look forward to meeting you in person in October.

Hi Dale

Certainly getting there. The thing that has been missing from your recent bat images is a sense of place. This is addressed (slightly) in this latest shot due to the inclusion of the vegetation. Including more of the surroundings takes the image away from being viewed as a 'technical image' and introduces a story element about the subject.
I'm sure you've looked a Stephan Dalton's work and therefore you don't need me to tell you this.
Cheers,
Chris
