Hi Jon, good action captured here with the interaction and flying droplets. Love the pose of the lower Grebe, and I do like the colour of their eyes. With the 1DX, Im wondering why you dont push the ISO higher.

Wow, very dramatic action caught here Johnathan. I really like the pose of the lower grebe and the blurred foot of the upper one. Looks like he's going to get hammered. Well done.
Come join me for a Custom Raptor Workshop starting this November 2019- January 2020.
P.M. me to inquire on dates, pricing and availabilities. Thank You.

Dave it was a mating pair, the next shot I will post shows how he ignominiously slips off the female and lands on her head

Stu I was on Auto ISO - I had been previously photographing grebes gliding by and I forgot to increase the SS for the action.

Very nice shot Jon, great action. I like the blurred foot, it gives the impression he is banging on her back. Great work. It reminds me of when I was photographing them last year. He was mating with her, or trying to, whilst she was sitting on 2 chicks on the nest.

Have you changed your color view slightly ?
. Am missing some of the blue

Did you get along with the video ?
TFS Andreas
Yes slowed myself down a bit for the processing - in fact I reprocessed after the video. Played around with white balance and colour temp etc before settling on a colour range and revised sharpening settings. I went on two separate days so the colours were different and unfortunately light direction was far from ideal - especially for the coots which I posted previously. Andreas thanks very much once again

Good action shot Jon. Ours have cleared off due to the council chopping branches off in the water Health and safety !!
Did n,t you post this one a while back with more twigs in ? maybe slightly different
Cheers
