Makes me think of a human about to dive... surely this guy would do it short after the take, anyway! ;) Good job, Rookery!!! :t: :t: :t:
 
Great timing and pose you got out of this one Rook! Well done, the lighting is superb as well; and that is saying a lot against a blue-sky background. You pulled it all together, the crop makes the image very cohesive. Thanks for sharing, good one! :t: :t:
