Crab Catches a Ruddy Turnstone

[Tim Foltz]

Canon 1DX • 700 mm • 1/2500 • f/7.1 • ISO 500 • handheld • manual

Great defensive tactic or futal attempt at surviving? needless to say this was a temporary situation.
Wish I could have been lower but embankment and rules prohibit being lower at this location.

Thanks for looking.

Exposure and IQ look good,

You probably had your shorts on, jump off the bridge into the water to get that lower POV. The crab puts this one on the special list, great find Tim

The Ruddy fell into his trap! The crab had it all worked out up until the point where he was unfortunately dismembered and eaten. Nice interaction captured.

Sharp with a good exposure and a nice bite! All in all, well done.

with love, artie

As much as I love ultra low POV shots, the prey item means its not so important here. Lovely timing, and a great interaction frame
