Doug, I have not seen a predator/prey still photo as well
accomplished as this one for more years than I care to count!

DANG WELL DONE!

>>No caption needed, the photo says it all:

Technical stuff: R8/DMR, 280mm f/4 APO-Telyt-R, shoudler stock monopod and 
an old blue truck.

My comments: The R8's excellent viewfinder combined with a lens that leaves 
no doubt where the plane of focus is, is manual focus bliss.  Long live R.  
Your comments are welcome.
