Hi Friends,
Well this is actually a Three-banded Plover, looking for something to eat. I will post better id photo of this one later, with more ifo about the species as well.
I know this photo looks somewhat strange and like to know what you think of such a pose like these.
Enjoy the photo
Best wishes
Jan

hello Jan

welcome to TN,

i personnaly love this kind of bird photos while the bird
is on action, you did very well shooting your image at that
moment the Plover's beak on water searching food,
excellent POV and framing, i love that circle of waves
and the subject's reflection on water, excellent sharpness
and details of the plumage, TFS

Asbed

I like it very much, Jan!
This is not a posed shot; it is what the bird does regularly, that is , search for food!
The reflections add art and interest to the shot!
Well done!


Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hallo Jan,
Met zo'n Hollandse naam durf ik je in het Nederlands te antwoorden. Prachtige foto met bijzonder heldere kleuren, goede scherpte en compositie. Mooi laag standpunt.
Prettige Paasdagen,
Peter

Love the mirror image capture, and what's really great about this shot is that it's an action shot, but the single ripple in the water's glassy surface sort of makes you want to catch your breath and whisper about it. If that makes any sense ;-) Just wonderful - great clarity, color and composition. Penny

Hi Jan,
what a beautiful shot, you have captured the bird in a fine position when it seeking food.
I really like the low POV , did you get wet?
Well composed with fine details and nice colours.
The reflections is nice extra bonus.
Well done.

Hi Jan,
