I needed my 300mm to get this pick. I had to wait till this guy decided to land, then I took the picure. They don't sit still for long.

    Great shot! I think he thought he was the Red Baron after his spy mission, with that great satisfying smile. It is hard to get them there for very long. He made me feel like summer on the lake. Thanks for sharing your wonderful talent.
