Barrow, Alaska | June | Canon 1dx | Canon 600mm / f5.6, ISO 500, 1/3200
This shot was taken with my 1dx after it had been submerged beneath lake water TWICE and for over 2 seconds each time. Crazy thing just keeps on shooting.

Matthew, gorgeous flight pose with wonderful angle of view.  Like the way the tundra on the bottom helps ground the image, giving a sense of both trajectory to the bird, and a sense of place.

Dang, I want one. Well done. Would just love to see this species in person.
