[Leica] Galapagos - Last Set

[Philippe]

This is a superb series Jayanand.

Scratching and gallop are my favourites. 


The sun either setting or rising is wow too !

I see you shot Nikon and they usually feature the distance in the exif. not when on the lug, But the FL and proportions are telling. You got very close :-)

Thanks for de-procrastinating even if only for a short time ... ;-)
