Thank you @arlanda
Great shot
Thank you Christine.
Great shots Kostas!
Thank you Rob for your kind words and support.
Fantastic work Kostas. You only need one great image, even if you have taken hundreds, to make it all worth while.
Thank you Daniele! I think that the photos I've been able to capture are only a small subset of the photos I tried unsuccessfully to capture. And these instances are a small subset of the instances I didn't get to take a picture or even I didn't notice the existence of an animal or a plant.
Great action shots Kostas! They are so hard to catch!
