Damn hardcore.....raining. Careful of Cat 1 though. The wisp of feather on the head plastered to the skull in the first pic, makes him look a bit old.

Hardcore indeed. I like the ripples when the rain hit the water.

Nice action captures there Fred esp. the 2nd one.

Kudos for your dedication even though it was pouring like mad.

ps. I think there's a few dust spots on your sensor, time for cleaning I guess?
