I was going for something minimalist and artitistic...nice to have the opportunity to try things for a local "rarity"! Like Graces's lone tern, this phalarope was the only bird around within a couple of hundred yards. Photo taken just before sunrise. Good reflections of this little bird were rare as it kept creating ripples in the calm water with its' perpetual movements - I was happy with this one.
Hope this works for you!
Canon 7D + 100-400L @400mm, manual exposure, evaluative metering (this was close to +3 stops if I remember correctly), 1/200s., f/6.3, ISO 800, natural light, handheld, FF plus canvas added top and left.
