Nicely done, Denis. Very sharp throughout. I love these guys, but don't have a good shot of one yet - hopefully by end of summer.

Hi

An excellent shot that it has been a pleasure to see - perhaps a little too tightly framed, but stunning none the less

All the best
Matthew

Thanks Matthew!
It,s a full frame shot.these guys are big,and with mpe-65,at 4 inches away,you don't have a lot of room,even with full frame body!
