That's not rubbish at all - you have captured an action that might not be seen very often and it's clear. OK, so the head is not fully captured but a) that doesn't really change the effect of the photo (it still looks good) and b) you can't expect anything more when trying to capture the action of wildlife - better to miss part of the body and get the main action than get nothing at all.

I think it's great... mind you, I'm no expert

 

thank you for your comments, I was just so disappointed when I hadnt captured it all.

 

I don't see it as a disapointment . I relly like it. It's a scream.

Sometimes it is annoying (Pesky wildlife just won't keep still! )... but in this case it doesn't distract at all. Lovely photo.

 

I forgot to mention that the camera I used was a Panasonic FZ50 which has zoom range from 35mm to 420mm (35mm equiv) onto this I had screwed a 1.5x teleconverter that belonged to my now departed finepix 6900.This gave me an effective length of 630mm. The shot was handheld.(but the camera does have a very good optical stabelizer system.This isnt a replacement for an SLR with additional lenses but it surely does take a lot less carrying

 

Ok.. so you lost me there.... I have enough problems working out what the buttons do on my thing, so trying to add stuff to it and explain is well beyond me
