    I was watching a small group of dunlin when this little fellow popped up, and just as quickly popped back out of sight. No time to do anything but aim and fire.

    Good effort catching this little fellow. Too bad you had no time to adjust your exposure as the the photographs looks quite overexposed. Fortunately you had time to make a nice composition out of this....but the wood in the upper right is a bit too distracting for me.

    Agree. Working off angle to the light almost always causes numerous problems with contrast and exposure. Next time this happens pray for a cloud!

    I like the comp. The weasels head is right on a power point. It's also looking into the frame.. Ths nit with the lighting has been explained above.

    I do so appreciate all the suggestions, there was a whole lot of luck catching this little fellow, and I am pleased that I did not totally blow my chance at him, I've only seen them 3 times with a camera in hand, this the second time I've caught one.
