      I can do that! Can't be that amazing. Good you have not frightened it and it has let you get a different sort of bird portrait!.
      Better a full bottle in front of me
      than a full frontal lobotomy.

        Excellent shot Isac. The composition is very......balanced.
        Fujifilm X-T5, XF16-80 f/4, XF70-300 f/4-5.6, XF23 f/2, XF35 f/2, XF150-600 f/5.6-8, and a random assortment of 35mm film cameras.

          Nicely framed Isac, with good colour and background. The duck itself, not the photo, looks a little unbalanced at first glance, but obviously isn’t

            Cheers Mark, I'd need a different method to keep a leg warm.

            I used to be able to do that (a long time ago). I'm sure if I tried it now it would be a big hit - me hitting the ground!

            Thank you David. Good play on words.

            I thought the same about the angle Alan but its foot is perfectly verticle with its body mass. Definitely an illusion.

              Re balance looks ok. The centre of gravity looks like it's in line with the point of contact to take care of the gravity.
