Proud

By KingArthur
Shot captured last December in fading evening light while out birding at my favourite haunt.

Grabbed hold of this graceful Cormorant just as it surfaced right ahead of me ..... captured here in an appealing proud pose before it rapidly disappeared again. The camera/lens combo delivering well given it was more of a pot shot.

Viewing large yields plenty of detail.

Action Gear -
Camera: Nikon D500
Lens: Sigma 60-600mm at 600mm

Have a great week,
Joe Smile
