A beautiful, well exposed image setoff perfectly by the lovely soft background. I am amazed at the long tail and the size of its feet. Excellent image!

Excellent capture of this wading species Somdeb, and a perfect view of those wonderful feet that enable them to walk on the surface of the aquatic plants! Congratulations, very nicely done!
