Coot

Taken in early morning sunlight which helped with the exposure on this black bird.

1/1250. F8. ISO 1000. Canon 5D Mk4. Canon 100-40 L Mk2. 1.4x Extender Mk3. Lightroom 5 and PS6. Neat Image for noise reduction. Slight Crop.

Beautiful pose and reflections and even subject. The whole thing looks way dark to me but I still love the image.

Thanks Artie. You are right, the image is too dark. Here is a re-post with some brightening applied.Attachment 178600
