Ah Reels, you're so easily led! :'D A beautiful shot, I like the way he's looking back to make sure you're following, and his little mossy grandstand. :clap:

LOL about Graham's remark :clap:

"Sandpiper airing his pipes"my thought was that you would answer him with the sound of the Bagpipe

But its a stunning picture Reels, well done
