Love watching darters with their elastic necks. This one was drying his wings at the bottom of the bund wall on the harbour.

Beautiful images. What treatment have you given them. They look a bit HDR.. You would have to be happy with those!

Thanks everyone. Not HDR Greg but have been starting in lightroom lately and pulling up the shadows and down with the highlights which tends to give it that sort of appearance.
