A crow leads the aerobics class at Haytor, Dartmoor. A kind of 'Distance Learning' experience.
Haytor is probably the most easily accessed tor tops on Dartmoor - somebody very kindly cut a set of steps in the granite rock! No matter what the weather - it was squally with gusts on the day this was taken - you can usually find someone up there. For your amusement (and critique if you fell inclined).

Great timing and angle on this shot. Very funny I must agree. I'm just wondering who is mimicking who.

That is too funny. I can imagine some creative ways you might edit this one for even more outrageous effect.

Great catch, thanks for sharing it here.

..and here's a 3D conversion that appears to enhance the distance between the "choir master" and his distant, yet enthusiastic choir on top of that magestic monolith!

The shot does not need a critique. It just makes you laugh and that is what it was supposed to do. Good timing and I love your sense of humor.

Thanks to everyone for responding, glad you enjoyed it, and apologies for the delayed reply. Have to admit, Frank has spotted the composite (no surprise there then). The shots were taken within moments of each other, from the car window, whilst sitting in the car park below Haytor. It just seemed too good not to combine them!
I'm horribly busy at the moment, so UHH time is limited, please forgive the 'all in one' response.
