    This was taken around 8 am in the morning. The female was very very shy, but this stud couldn't be bothered by us.
    Love the tail. I have been trying to photograph this beauty, for as long as I can remember. And Finally...... this is almost
    a Full Frame. Just cropped a bit from the top.

    Wow what an amazing bird!! Love the habitat, raised foot, and curved tail. You were limited crop-wise because of that tail but this is the best you could have come up with...well done! Congrats on getting an image of this beautiful fella!

    Hi Ishmeet, congrats on getting your dream species. Super pose with the curled tail, and interesting looking water foliage.

    Stunning looking bird !...and almost full frame, well done especially considering it's been a long time coming. All looks very nice indeed, light, detail despite the long tail fits in the frame with a good composition

    Ishmeet,

    This is a wonderful looking bird beautifully captured. Whilst the body shape and feet are similar to the Jacanas we have in Africa the tail and colours are totally different. Remarkable thing nature!
