            Thanks for the kind comments . I go out in greens or camo , hands and face covered , I got pretty good at approaching down wind , even if the light does not always favour it , I probably spent 30 odd mins getting in range of them , much of it on hands and knees , got set up and a few frames off , and it didn`t take them long to see something was sus . They didn't panic and sprint off , but did wander off in the end . Not sure if it was the lens reflection or shutter noise , maybe both I guess we will never know .

              Well done Mark.

              The low angle provides a great out of focus lead-in to the shot and your stalking skills have certainly paid off.

                Really like that, good POV, did you consider cloning out the bits of the others and just leave the one main animal?
