No comments so far, so I'll do a 'selfie'
I remember this day very well, because I was frustrated with the lousy shooting conditions.
Had traveled quite a distance to end up with a very overcast day. And the area was surrounded with tall trees and vegetation, cutting the light even further. Subsequently had to shoot at high ISO, with a high degree of failure as I tried to stop the action.
And I was forced to shoot handheld from an elevated narrow bridge walkway, with many people passing by, so no tripod. Not the best POV either.. should I go on?
