CommentI managed to save another image from my encounter with a group of Red-capped Plovers the other day. I like this one a lot due to the angle, the foregound & background bokeh, the two blurred birds in the background, and the overall composition.

Minimal processing in Lightroom and cropped at a 16:9 ratio which framed the scene well.

Photographed at 1/2000 sec., f/8, ISO 500 and at a focal length of 784mm
EquipmentCanon R7 - Canon EF 200-400 1:400 'L' IS USM 1.4x & 1.4x iii external teleconverter
