    Can't get much better especially with that highly lit background. Nicely done.

    Yes, Brian, sometimes a perfect shot just isn't possible due to the conditions. I tried some insect shots yesterday but the light kept changing as clouds passed overhead and my subjects were a little skittish.

    Managed some species identification images but certainly nothing which even remotely resembled a prize winning photo!

    I will post some examples in another thread.

    A very interesting perspective. Or a reminder why I should never visit the Philippines.

    I'd be pretty proud if it were mine, Brian, not least for having the nerve to take it. Very cool shot.

    Brian,

    If there was a category for “most improved member” I think you would top my list.

    Great shot!
