    At least I think it's a least... Someone correct me if I have it wrong! This little one was having a little bath in the afternoon sun. Cloned out a couple of rocks and cleaned up the water a bit. Converted in LR4 and cropped, touch-up in CS5.

    7D, EF400mm f/5.6L
    Manual mode, f/7.1@1/2000 ISO 400 WB 5100K
    AI Servo autofocus, hand-held no flash

    Yes, Kerry, I believe your ID is correct. I like the crop and the processing. These little guys are speedy, so I'm always struggling to get them doing something interesting rather than just feeding. You nailed it! I may be wrong, but I think you need a tiny CW rotation.
