That's what I was aiming for. It was actually mid-afternoon, there had been quite a bit of rain (like most days, living here), and I had to crawl down the bank among all the mud and slime to bag this shot with the fixed, slightly-wide-angle lens on my Olympus RF. Still, it was worth it: if I ever do a portfolio, it will be in there as one of my best shots
