Nice composition here! You really get a sense of motion and flight from it. Again nice job keeping the eyes bright

Thanks Lawrie, the light from the snow is just so beautiful, really helps to keep the eyes nice I think

Welcome. And yes it is! It's almost like a big reflector!

Wonderful capture indeed
I really like that You didn't crop it, but kept the rather unortodox portrait format.

I love how still she looks, i mean i know she's running but she almost seems frozen (no pun intended)

I know what you mean, it looks like she jumped out slowly from the photo, but I can promise you it was a lot quicker then it looks

Thanks Robert, if I had planned the shot I would have gone landscape, but she just suddenly sprung out so I just had to go for it. I actually quite like the portrait style here too
Whipsnade is one of my favourite zoos in the UK, lots of different animals and all of them have really nice big enclosures. All are set up very natural too (not loads of man made things) so you can get natural shots really well. It's the zoo I visit the most now, would definitely recommend it if you came again!
