Not a brilliant shot - but I think it's funny. I spotted these male pheasants about to attack each other out of the corner of my eye and just had time to turn and grab this one shot. I only had a 40-150mm zoom lens on the camera and they were quite a distance away, so this is a huge crop.

Pretty good-looking for a huge crop, even in the large version. Fortune favours the prepared.

Well, is not a bad capture Keith but we must admit that the title is second to none

It's a great shot, considering the surprise nature of it! Just a couple of boys having some drinks and a fight, eh? My big crops look like a child's coloring pages. I just don't have the camera for it.
