Sedge mum and junior

[Stan]

Last week at Elmley I was shooting these sedge warblers, focus on the juvenile and it wasn't until I reviewed the frame, discovered I had got the parent as well and both in the plane of focus, so more of a lucky shot than planned. This is the full frame vertical, just cropped off each side

Very nice Stan, looks like you had better weather/light than I had in Wales last week.

Well done Stan, there's enough bad luck about so when good luck comes along it is well deserved

You make your own luck, Stan, by being there and by utilising great technique. Lovely resultant image, intended or not.
