Nice little surprise on the river Severn here the other day.
As usual all the wrong gear and the birds a long way off.

Very large crop
Needs viewing large. But still rubbish

Looks a touch noise reduced John but great to have 3 at once...I have never shot one :(
Great composition John with the two looking at the third which is conveniently looking back hence keeping the viewer looking into the image. I have to agree that something doesn't look quite right on the processing as there seems to be an edge to the log etc.

Thanks both.
I did say it was rubbish - just a new species for me and something to break the monotony.. It is a massive crop off a not very good picture to start with, and the subject was on the far side of the river- quite a way off.
The log edge effect is probably the over sharpening and neat image - enlargement included.. I wanted to see if the pigs ear saying was correct.
