Clapper Rail Merritt Island, Florida This image is one of my personal favorites. Greg and I were traveling the roads of Merritt Island by car, he was able to stop and shoot from the driver’s side, everything on the passenger’s side was mine. He had just had some great opportunities with a shrike, and I was a bit envious, but not long afterwards he stopped the car. There was a bird in the grass on my side of the road, and he said however I had to contort myself to get that shot, get it! From a very awkward position, I rested my lens over the passenger side mirror, and had to partially rise up out of the seat to see the bird in the viewfinder. The lens kept sliding off the curved mirror. I was pretty lucky to get any shots of the bird, and every time I see this image I think of what an adventure bird photography is. Digital capture with Canon 1D Canon 500mm f/4 with 1.4x teleconverter Manually exposed at 1/1250, f/8 ISO 250 Image comments/critiques appreciated! [b]NatureScapes.Net Site Co-Founder
