Black throated diver
Nikon D7000 300mm f4 + 1.4 TC ISO 800 1/640s at f7.1 tripod

Taken last year in early spring. Quite a large crop so not the best of images. This bird was coming in to the shore towards me but was spooked by a fly fisherman. Many thanks for your comments on my earlier posts. All C+C warmly welcomed.

Nick. :smile: :wavey:

Hi Nick.
It looks really good to me Nicki do like the water colour and the bird sits well on it.

Lovely composition. The crop does show unfortunately but I'd bet there are many of us who would be happy to have this on our files.

Simple composition and very effective. I like the reflections in the water.
