Grebe in the Spotlight

One of my favorite locations for low key photography during the winter months. The sun sets exactly in the right spot that it shines across the water and the trees on the banks cast shadows on the water. If the birds are there are in the right position, it might create the perfect spotlight. In previous years it was a bit tricky, because this spot it is on a busy trail. This year was an exception; part the trail was closed for maintenance. So people did not really go here and it was a great opportunity to lay down and wait for birds. I had mute swans, coots, great crested grebes and a common merganser in front of my camera. This photo was taken at the end of the season for this spot, can’t wait to get back in November (if the sun shines).
