Only 800 shutter Aperture 5.6 ISO 640

I was at the zoo sitting on a bench having finished taking the typical flamingo pics and waiting for my grandkids to finish playing on the hammerhead shark when this one dove in the water and came back up shaking it off. I thought damn I missed it, but he did it again. So I got up and rolled the shutter up (auto ISO) and he did it over and over again. My lucky day.

Thanks! Those of us who photograph wildlife and birds will take all the luck we can get

Striking picture. Not only the stop action (water droplets) but exposure (not an easy exposure with dark background and pink and white bird), symmetry. Very nice.

Maybe the flamingo is an omen of a good season. Hopefully, you have one and if the Big Orange want to use this image they are welcome to it! Just don't tell the Columbus Zoo.

Is there really a Rocky Top?

Actually, that "don't tell" comment was an attempt at humor but I should say obtain permission from the Columbus Zoo.
