Oh, that's really nice Jeff.....close and clear....Did it hear you click the shutter and scamper or were you able to get several attempts? tripod? The reflection is a super bonus.....It will be hard to beat this one.....if you do, it will be one hell of a shot...Good luck and congrats for pursuing until you got it.

Nice shot villa! Super quiet ninja mode worked well. Glad to see some people stepping over to the wild side. Nothing like the beauty of nature.

Brilliant picture! Your hand must be very steady in the ninja quiet mode too.
