Hi Helena and Ken,

Another nicely timed shot. Exposure and other techs look spot on as well. Nicely done.

Cheers...

Brad

You caught him just right, with lots of dynamic tension in the pronking pose at a graceful point in the action.    I appreciate the eye catch light and warm lighting. Other terms..."stotting" or "pronging" also describe similar or same behaviours.

A very fine capture.  Sharp as can be, and set off very nicely from the plain grass background.
