Oh wow, that's a wee shy one!


Call me Geoff.

I do what I do because I want to, and because I can....

Doesn't mean I know what I'm doing, though!

Great capture, the study of these short living features is of great interest and is a field of study open to contributions from amateurs :bow

I saw this first on SGL and spent ages staring at it, it took me ages to spot it but I got there in the end :lol:
