Heron and GC Grebe Eat outdoors

A long day at Stithians and Marazion, a close up of the Little Grebe was closely followed by the GC Grebe tucking into some fish for lunch. Next was Marazion. For the two Heron shots the light was fading fast. The first image of the Heron fishing shows the effect of the shallow depth of field, I think this image would of been better at F11 or something to have more of the reeds etc in focus. Last picture of the Heron having caught an eel, this was his second in a few minutes with light fading I upped the ISO to 640 and took a lot of shots knowing most would be blurred. A great shot to end the day.
