Nice one.
I had some shots before from usual angle.
Month ago on way back from Mayo got
similar shot.From river,without wellies
I still do not like branches on the right.
No choice.
Tried and tried.
1 from 100 shots is very good.Sometime. :)
Prefocus on place where expecting bird,
waiting and cont. shoting.High ISO,good light,spot metering to get faster shatter speed.
For this shot was using tripod and hide.
ISO 400- f5.6- 1/2000s- Focal length 140mm
Thanks Dave and Mark.
I agree landscape format could be good, I posted portrait one. Hardly to get foreground interest there.
I went in last moment just before sunset, set the tripod and start taking shots.
