It was very hot and humid but I could not stop watching and photographing these birds. Whenever a bird would go near it, it would open it's wings as if to show the other bird/birds that it is enormous and that it can very well fight him/her if she came any nearer :-) Greater Painted-snipe in "palaban" mode :-) Rostratula benghalensis Los Baños, Laguna April 19, 2015  5DMkIII + 500mm f/4 + 2x TC ; 1/1000 sec; f/4.0; ISO 400 : Car window beanbag |

Wowowww!
This is surely among my top all-time favorites of your images, Tina.
Very attractive subject with amazing pose, super sharpness and great colors, lovely eye contact and very pleasing, painterly BG and FG.
10 stars, at least!

Thank you Romy. Coming from you... SUPER KILIG to death ako :-) I viewed it previously on my crappy laptop LCD. Now that I'm viewing it on my calibrated post processing IPS display, it looks even more spectacular. You may now retire your photo gear, Tina.... you already got the Holy Grail. |

Thanks a lot Tonji, Bobby and Romy. Just got lucky that the snipes were out in the open that day and didn't mind the attention I was giving them :-D
