These guys are uncommon up here, and usually seen a couple of hundred yards out into the water, so when this female started coming into one of the near narrow channels it was only natural that I would find some spot to hide low into the reeds to wait for her approach. Which she did multiple times...until she finally saw me and bolted outta there!
Canon 7DII + 500mm f/4 II + 1.4TC III, manual exposure, evaluative metering, 1/1000s., f/5.6, ISO 1600, natural light, handheld, small crop after a CW rotation, spot-removed a few flecks in the water and cloned out a couple of larger distracting oof bubbles (created when she popped up from a dive), NR to the BG and FG.
