Boabs are remarkable trees but for a successful photograph the intricate tracery of branches needs to stand out not be lost in the foliage of the trees behind. What was I thinking?
Having the camera on a tripod does encourage you to think about your composition. In the good old days I had a cable trigger so as not to jiggle the set up when pressing the button. These days I use a two second timer.
In that two second interval two Australian Bustard flew through the scene, the second hasn’t quite made it out. So let me present for you an unremarkable photo of twin Boabs and an unremarkable photo of a Bustard combined in a picture I am never likely to take again.
