a real banger

It's not often that I am completely 100% satisfied with an image.

I always come away thinking I could have done better in terms of the subject, its framing, my composition or the exposure.

But when I got home from a late afternoon drive to our "Paradise" just yesterday evening and imported my images onto my hard drive, I was really excited by what I saw.  So excited in fact that at 2:15am on the day this is going to be posted I am awake, in my office printing this image off and writing a last-minute blog article to showcase it instead of the image you were due to see. *

After all that build up, it'd better be good.  Right?
