I got some VIP treatment last season photographing these guys. I was luck to be there at the right time for this image.

Hope you like it.

Thanks!

Love it, the light looks great and the colours are beautifull, comp is good Maxis and the natural moment you've captured is as great. Have you noticed the water drop falling in the aire behind the neck of the female? Great plus ;)
Congratulaitons!
