    Hi Jonathan, amazing photo! I was very surprised that you were at 1/320. I think I would have had to shoot much faster, especially hand held. Wow, what a compelling photo! Congrats! Gabrielle

    Whoa. That stacking worked very well here. Overall a nice frame. Good exposure and sharpness as well.

    Thanks for the feedback everyone. Gabrielle there is up to 7.5 stops image stabilisation with Olympus so slow shutter speeds are fine so long as the wind and the subject play ball.
