Fabulous eye-level come-up showing excellent colors and a tinge of iridescence. First-rate Hugh!!!!

Cor!!!

You've handled the exposure beautifully Hugh and the lovely light has really shown us his pretty iridescence.

A super picture - very well done lad.
 
The whole Greater/Lesser thing is just annoying. When I see the "experts" haggle about the ID, I figure it's not important. :)
