Dimairt - or Dègas......?

I had fun with my new telephoto lens tonight on the beach (courtesy of a nice guy called Mike on ebay - thanks!). I was really pleased with some of the unusual results, and this one just seemed a bit like an impressionist painting. God - that sounds rather....... 1. pretentious 2. immodest 3. nerd-like.

Anyway, Dimairt had to catch more than his usual share of sticks in order to produce this shot. He didn't mind one bit.

Except......... I notice that he is a wee bit stiff tonight with all the running and the swimming. Note to self - must make sure that I don't use other creatures for Blip opportunities, unless it is in their best interests also.

Wonder how long it will take me to break this one, then?
