Well I got the angle, but the wires started getting into the shot sadly. Tricky to get a different angle (needed to be in the pen to do it ;)) but I think I captured things decently well. I have tried to lose the corner, but can't work out where to draw the cropping lines so any advice would be appreciated.

Otter having a little snack!

Nice clear shots of the noshing otter. I see what you mean about where to crop the one where a bit of the fence is showing...short of doing a lot of cloning, I don't see a way around it either.

Hope you dont mind - duplicated and increased the darkness in Layers and masked out the main image with a soft brush leaving the bottom corner. Flattened darkened again and the again using a mask to give a vignette. Not perfect but the eye is drawn away from the offending mesh.

Love the otters!
