Dipper

[Jonathan Ashton]

Tripod Canon 7D Canon 500mm & 1.4 TCISO 200 1/30 sec f5.6
I chose a slow shutter speed deliberately I wanted a sharp dipper and soft water.

[Colin Driscoll]

Good detail and light Jonathon, just a pity that leg is oof just falling out of the dof.

[Miguel Palaviccini]

Very nicely thought out to get the soft water. My assumption is that a faster shutter speed would have meant more "detail" in the water because the subject was relatively close to it?

I could see just a tad taken off the top, otherwise a keeper!

[Karl Egressy]

Beauty shot, Jon. Love the stretching pose and the feather detail.

nice capture Jonathan,sharp with good detail,like the out stretched leg,its a pity it is not sharp,but still nice image.

[Mike Poole]

Excellent detail, not an easy bird to expose for. I actually quite like the movement in the leg, the rest of the body is sharp so it's nice to have another point of interest, and it works well with the flowing water
