Default Out on a limb.

Having some stormy weather here in the UK today, went out with the camera to see how it was affecting our local rivers. Saw this little duck sitting out the swollen fast flowing river on this branch and wanted to capture it in detail. Hope you like it.
David.

Hey Jim,
Thanks for the comments, not been anywhere really apart from still looking for a full time job. So not much time for the camera at time. Glad you like the image. Take care.
David.

Thanks for the kind comments folks. This was taken in the village of Bakewell in the heart of The Peak District. It's a beautiful area and I love to take photos here.
Paul hope your high and dry

I like the stepping motion " I am getting outta this stuff!"
