I'm always impressed how much drama you manage to capture in your wildlife pictures. I figured this was one where you took dozens of shots trying to capture the perfect moment. I'm amazed that this was just a quick "test shot."
To be fair, it was one of several quick test shots. I had just gotten a new lens for my trip to Peru and needed to make sure it worked before I took it out of country and was stuck potentially lugging a dead piece of equipment around. So I went to the Wood Lake Nature Center and spent about fifteen minutes practicing on birds as the sun set, to mimic the conditions I'd see in the jungle.
