5D3, f7.1  @ 1/800,  800mm

I haven't seen many King Rail images posted so I thought  I'd post one from last weekend. I sat in four inches of water for a few hours to finally get a few clean shots.
Thanks for looking!

Hi Bill


A very nice 'wet-ass' shot. Nice low angle and good details on the bird.

Cheers

Spectacular shot.  Great composition.  This capture was worth the wait.

It was worth the effort Bill. Beautiful setup for this difficult bird.

WOW bill, at this low angle looks like you might have been under the water with just the lens above the water line. Great low angle shot.

Love this image Bill. A species that I have seen but yet to get my lens on. Love the setting, pose and details. Where was this taken?
