First class. The last look many small mammals and insects will see

Out of interest have you done anything to highlight the eyes on the computer? If so what?

Again a super image

Thanks for your comments on this and Pt I guys.

Angus nothing special, just my usual processing in LR4 and a tad of selective colour and dash of shadows and highlights, then sharpen and convert for web in CS5.

Thanks, Graham

Great shot, Graham. You could take a bit off the top, but then you would lose the effect of the raindrops.
