Taken at 5:30 am on early summer before the sun had broken the horizon, thus no colour to the sky and under very poor light.

Nikon D7100, Nikkor 300 2.8 VRII, 1.4 tele. manual on a tripod.

f 8 @ 1/160 sec. ISO 1600.

Thank you for viewing, comments welcome and appreciated.

The light was good enough for a very nice image.

Great job in the low light Robert, I might move him a bit farther left in the frame. Great pose and nice high key image.

Your Kingfisher images are among the best of the best, Robert.
