What Dan describes is exactly what drew me to this image. Glad you guys saw that too. As to luck in exercise; I believe some luck drips on anyone that cares to do exercise. Wildlife photography these days is pretty much about rattling off a lot of frames around any moment that looks potentially significant. You always have to review your captures anyhow. To recognise an unsuspected keeper is half a victory. Or half a failure, according to the mood of the day.
