002 Little Grebe 小鷿虒鳥

Having read the sharing in the previous topic posted by Angus (http://www.hkbws.org.hk/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=PhotoGallery;action=display;num=1096344398), I decided to try shooting LG again at a low angle.  I fully opened my tripod and my setup was just a few inches about the glassland near Pond 15.  I was almost lying on the glassland and could only press the shutter in the battery grip while applying long lens technique and manual-focusing.  I was lucky enough this LG was swimming towards me and it was only several meters away.  Nevertheless, this is the best shot I can take.  :(

10D + 500/4IS + 1.4x + 2x
IS enabled but no flash  :( (as I was not prepared and I think it maybe useful under this lighting condition)

Felix,
Love the low angle. A tough backlit situation and a little fill would have made wonder in this case. Also would prefer a slight head turn away from the camera ... ::)
Good effort!
