RED Outstanding photography work mate & such a fantastic use of nature in making these figures look so like like :D

Must admit the fording shots are my fav too :D

If you can sit tight to take shots like these whilst being bitten,hallmarks of a good ambusher/sniper mate ;) Though your pain was well worth it to show us lot :D
