Nikon D200 ,Nikkor 200-400mm f/4G ED-IF AF-S VR
1/1000s f/5.0 at 400.0mm iso200
hand held, natural light, vertical crop.
Taken last winter, with thanks to Jack Rogers for helping me find my way around the great birding land called Florida, USA.
Simply outstanding!!! I love the BG, the light, the details and pose, everything! Good you got good help and advice.. I eny you. Congrats.
Very nice shot, I like the pinsharp head and the slight movement in the wing and toe tips

Very cool shot! I don't believe I've ever seen this bird with a totally clean BG.
Very cool pose Raymond. I like the profile landing action. Maybe its just me but I detect a very slight subject motion blur in the eye area - maybe its the catchlight needing some attention.
This is a fine Purple Gallinule image. The body position, BG, wing position, light and details are all first rate.
This is really just a fine point but I cant help but wonder if ISO 400 and 1/2500th @ F4 would have sharpened up the wings more.

Sweet shot Ray, love the pose
