Little Grebe (Tachybaptus ruficollis)

Keoladeo Ghana National Park, Bharatpur, Rajasthan, India

25 December 2005

I took a vertical shot in the previous frame to include the single Grebe. But then the other Grebe followed it and came in the frame for me to take this complete pic. This is my favorite silhouette of the trip.

Canon EF 500mm f/4L IS on Canon 10D using Gitzo 1410 and Wimberly Head. ISO 100, 1/1000 @ f5, Evaluative Metering -1/3 Stop
