Thanks Trev.
I did try to move so the rock was not in the BG, but it flew off.

Thanks Stan, I agree it would be a better shot without the rock in BG

That's the thing with wild animals or something like motorsports,
one doesn't always have a choice of where one gets the shot from.

I think you have done really well to throw the background out of focus given that you probably only had a few seconds to get the shot you have.
Better this than nothing, which would have been the case trying to get the "perfect blue backdrop".
