Hi John, not much wrong with this one.

Perhaps a tad of Shadow reduction in the Black by the eye and pop an 'iris' adjustment, but all looking good with a lovely backdrop. Unless you were that close I think f/9 might have been OK and gained you more SS which isn't a bad thing HH.

Thanks Steve, I was pretty close around 11feet. These guys are quite tame.
