It is amazing to me what just the smallest amount of head turn can do for the colors of these amazing creatures.

Wow, what an amazing shot Wade. I'm glad we can now post the Larger Image in the forums it is worth seeing this one up close. Great job!

They are amazing aren't they! Nice shot, well timed to catch the iridescence. A teeny bit brighter? Maybe? Or nudge up the ambience? Very nice as is, too, though. Good going, Wade. And thanks for posting.
