Common Coot

[Tushar Dixit]

We wanted to click this beauty for long and got an opportunity last weekend. These are cows of the water relishing the algae and water plants (though they also eat small animals and eggs). It's funny to see them chase one another in the water. Clicked this when the Coot was cleaning the vegetation it had just fetched by a quick dive.

EOS 7D, 500mm f/4L+1.4x, f/8, 1/640, ISO 400.

[Mrudul Godbole]

Nice action captured. Good eye contact. The water splash makes the image more interesting. The low angle looks good. Very well captured. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice action here. I like the radial spray of droplets. Always good to have a pattern to randomness :-)
The beak seems a bit bright to me, maybe you can work on toning it down a bit. Overall a nice image. Thanks for sharing.

Wow! Lovely image Tushar, the water splash and droplets have come out well. Congrats on your 500mm:thumbup:
