About
Location: Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park (encompassing the former Kalahari Gemsbok National Park), South Africa Date: 23 Mar 2005 Capture: Canon EOS-1D Mk II, EF 500 f4L IS with EF 1.4x II, 1/350, f8, ISO 400 (The teleconverter was ?permanently attached? to the body to keep dust out when changing between the 120-300 and 500.)
A spectacular wildlife image! the shallow DOF ensures that the bird stands out against its surrounding! If the background wasn?t this blurry it would have been hard to clearly see the bird! The colors of the bird and its environment are so similar Good work :)
