lovely shot Keith, if its the same place might see you there one day, looks like you had better light than me, they decided to hunt at around 3 and the light had gone poor by then, and it had been lovely to, but thats owls for you.

Hello Keith

It was nice meeting you today and putting a face to a name.

This is a lovely shot, I really like your composition. Now that you have got a new toy, there will be plenty more I am sure.
