Good set of images there, looks like it had been raining, on a few of the shots you seem to have picked up the fence a little more than in others, is that due to different lens use ?

Thanks for sharing

Thanks - no rain though, not sure what you're seeing?

They're all the same lens (Sigma 50-500) and within a stop or so aperture of each other I think - the fence is because there's only one location where I regularly try to shoot through the fence, I like it so much it's worth it. Lets you catch them on the kerbing coming out of Chapel, then it's a mix of luck and judgment. Wider aperture and longer zoom helps, but sometimes the sun catches just the wrong angle and the fence lights up like a christmas tree.
