Another year, another shortlisted image! This time in the ‘Invertebrates’ category:
Canon 600D + 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM lens; 2 sec @ f/40; ISO 100
This is a long exposure image of pond skaters (Gerris sp.) in motion, taken in the shady bend of a local river one summer afternoon. Shortly after this frame was captured my tripod toppled over and the camera went for an expensive swim!
Unfortunately this year’s entry again failed to make the final cut. Congratulations to The Winners.
