Asian Openbill Stork - about to eat

The stork was feeding itself in shallow water. This part of the river Mulla is quite polluted.

Was shooting against the light sitting on a small bridge. Ideally would have preferred higher shutter speed but didn't want to bump up the iso to 800.

Thanks!

Difficult lighting conditions. Moving a bit more to the left if possible would have been good. Wish the plastic bag in the background was not present, but it shows how polluted our rivers are :(. Some more details would have been good. Thanks for sharing.

Good attempt in difficult conditions
