Ha, glad to see that I wasn't the only one to leave the technique to the end! A good shot Dave, I like how you've framed the whirligig with the shadow.

Fabulous shot Dave. Fantastic timing. Redshanks are one of the birds I often see and consider a bit boring. I shall now have to rethink this - this is super!

[Darkslinger]

Very nice Dave, the deep shadows make for a dramatic image.

 

[FlyPhot]

Nice scene and fits the bill. Not sure if its my monitor but the darker areas in the top half of the image look over processed (but, as I say, it could be my monitor?)

Lovely picture, ticks all the boxes for me.
