Water strider

NIKON D200, NIKON 70-300mm ED LENS, 1/200sec, focal length -300mm, f/5.6, ISO-200

One of my favourite creatures :). You needed a higher shutter speed here, increasing the ISO would have helped. It is interesting to see another one facing the opposite direction. Accommodating that one in the frame too would have created an interesting symmetry.
These insects are found in almost every water body, large and small. A bit of patience and a few more attempts will certainly land you a great shot.

Thanks Abhisekh Sir,
When I was visiting around a fish cultivation pond near to native place at Odisha, I spotted these striders, I want to take shots for experiment basis, I could not sit or stand near the bank of pond due to slippery and muddy, I was fearing for falling in water, when I was shooting that time they are swimming in zig zag motion.My body was vibrating when I took shot by keeping the left hand on my leg for supporting.

Thanks for suggestion for improving my photography.

Regards
Surya
