This is one that I took last month as part of my Jack Vettriano period!
I left this un-cropped primarily because I wanted to put lots of space around these guys.
Also, because the lead bird is not pin sharp as I would have hoped.

Eos 1D Mk4 500mmL ISUSM f/4. Iso 400 1/3200sec f/4. Hand held.

Hi David...this looks pretty nice to me and I like the Vettriano styling. Maybe could have got away with a lower ISO.

I think this works very well indeed and it looks sharp enough at my end. A very "tranquil" image.
