Had a busy summer with little time for photography so looking back to last spring.
One of my better (for me anyway) images from the sessions I had with some local otters.
1/125 @f4.5 iso 3200
500mm.
nearly full frame, slight crop off bottom for composition.

I'd be glad of this Rob.
Just noticed how low the angle is too !
Great.

Lovely POV and shot, bit central?

very nice Robert, though I think I'd take a little off the right. I'm sure you're looking forward to having a go at these again in due course.

Cracking shot Robert and perfect POV. Agree with Matt on crop although it is always a personal choice.

It's always an amazing experience when you encounter a river otter and you have done really well to photograph them, Robert.

Slight nits covered but no big deal as most on here would be happy with a shot like this.
