Hi All,

This is an image from my session with the Kingfisher a few weeks ago, when the perch was empty, a quick scan of the water with the lens normally found something interesting. I am still looking at all the images so may well post another KF shot soon :wink:

All comments welcome

Regards

Rob

Razor sharp image Rob - shows the head and beak detail very well :toast: :toast:

Is it me, or is there a very faint magenta cast though - looking at the sky blue reflections they look a bit 'muddy' :wink:
