Just want to jump the gun and say a hearty congratulations to suleesia, a well deserved victory in a good field.
It is worth pointing out that even though the shot was taken with a 300/2.8 on one of those cursed DSLR's, this type of shot lends itself perfectly to Digiscoping.
The slower shutter speed of 1/60th of a second to create the rain trails, and quite shallow depth of field.
This shot could easily have been captured through a scope. In fact, the person with the most vocal objections to DSLR's and Digi-scoping being in the same comp has a shot of this species in his gallery: http://www.birdforum.net/pp_gallery/showphoto.php/photo/83190/sort/1/cat/500/page/1
See, all he needed was some rain and a fish; and the rest of the tail...
The best shot one....congratulations..
