    Nice light Jon and I like the way you have the small bit of water dividing the two and the RHS Grouse has the higher ground. Personally I might come up a fraction on the crop to loose the tiny bit of OOF grass at the foot. I might have also gone for a higher SS in case things 'kicked off'.

    Thanks Steve, re shutter speed - I used a variety, here in this particular instance I tried relatively low to increase image quality - one of the advantages of Auto ISO - just dial in varying shutter speeds quick as you like.
