Temminck's Stint on snow

Here is another one from this years trip to Norway. He was walking across the snow feeding as he walked. The standard camo gear I was wearing was useless in the snow but the Stint was pretty unconcerned about my presence.

I have some images where the Stint is very small in the frame showing the vast amount of snow covered land, so when I processed this one I wanted to show more detail in the subject.

C&C welcome.

Canon 1DMK4, 500mm plus 1.4x, 1/1250, f7.1, ISO400.

Cheers

Austin

Excellent exposure. The bird stands out really well against the background.
