Great shot. I'm equally impressed by your being able to capture this little guy.

Are you kidding! The shot is soft, very little detail, the background sucks and the color is lousy. With all the time you have to set up and get this shot I would have thought you would have been able to do better!;)

Well done!

I can't even get the camera focused on these guys, much less follow them with it. Great shot.
