Thanks for viewing/comments! - Handheld shot!

Almost as if fencing.. The colours are so interesting and the movement is well presented... I do however think that your crop to the left side is a bit tight sort of following your comments before, I think that is indeed a balance of that use of space as you have pointed out to me and greatly appreciated.. Cheers MJ

Thanks MJ! I wish the eyes would have shown better with some catch light but .. no such luck  :-) -  Without the 1.4X TC I probably could not get this very well either.  On the bright side, I am so lucky to have them facing me in good light.  I witnessed 3 mating offer but only one fellow took it (this one), the other two rather eat from that muddy water.  :-)

Fantastic image, well done, ciao Giangiorgio
