    We got up at 4am and drove over 1.5 hours to get Hang?s Tree, which is about 100km north of Melbourne. So we have enough time to find a good position, as it?s my first time to this place. I had about 10 minutes to capture a few shots during the blue hour. When the sun came out, the whole area was immersed in a soft and warm layer of golden lights. The morning fog gave the area a mysterious and dreamy atmosphere that makes the shot exactly how I wanted to look. The soft sun light was also spread

    Taken with Nikon D7500 with 300mm Nikkor lens. Two male Kingfishers possibly adult male and offspring sitting low by the River Crane. Light was low so had to use a high ISO. Because of this the image had to be denoised . It was then cropped and clarity and texture added in Lightroom. I have a nice triptych of them sitting in three different poses.
