I know this is a dull subject :P but this is the only bird that comes close and available in plenty. Location: Marina beach, Chennai, India Nikon D7000, 70-300MM VR
Nice one graphic! And thank you flight3, yes it was an awesome sight. The distance to the horizon was five or six miles at least. To see so much flat water perfectly still is unusual.
May we never forget those that made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our freedom. Flag flying on the USS Blueback submarine at OMSI on Memorial Day.
Had a great Saturday, went on an all day photo workshop with Graham Osborn (published in National Geographic, Canadian Geographic and Beautiful British Columbia magazine among others), and learned a lot. Anyway, here is a photo of Graham in a creek showing the group how he would shoot the scene.

Going along with the bird theme...
I really like how rich the feathers on the sparrow are. The ones we get around my home are lighter colored.
135mm on DX is just barely long enough for birding...
