Amazing

PRO

We call them Jesus-birds in jest because of that ability. Lovely image. Shutterspeed fast enough to get the head and eyes in perfect focus and too slow to stop the movement, which is the better option. It shows the awkward way this bird has to lift his feet high to be able to walk. It shows movement, which adds greatly to the image, seeing the head is in focus. Well done!!
