Wonderful reflection and beautiful colour!
One of the few that came out OK. It’s almost impossible to get consistent good shots out there. This was pretty far out in a marshland with bright sun and glare. At least there are dirt roads to make it easier. Thanks so much.
That is a cracking photo, Ted!
Thank you 🙂 A pretty good subject to work with. A bit of soft light would have been nice though.
Yep, I reckon that’s a stunning photo Ted. Showed Nigel and he’s like “Wow, that’s incredible!”
Well thank Nigel please. It is gratifying to have a world wide interest in our wildlife and be able to spread the idea that it is critical to protect ….. with no preaching 😂
