I really like this shot, it's like you have caught it in an embarrassing moment, the first skinny dip? Great lower aspect and color saturation as well, which definitely adds to the flavor here. Clearly the little critter had some suspicions about the noises coming from the hide :D

Looking to help fund another's 5D II purchase with $1200.00 Canadian 4 their ol' 5D Mark I (then I can cancel my order, get some fullframe & save some cash) :DDream on

Very nice low angle shot with nice colours. It will be even better without those brown thing on the right;)
