CommentThe image was taken from a boat on the Daintree River. The bird was in under overhanging riverside rainforest vegetation. I particularly wanted to show both the beautiful azure back and head plumage as well as the contrasting rufous underparts. The bird was cooperative in allowing us to get close and achieve good detail in the image.
EquipmentCanon R5 with RF 100-500 mm lens; f 5.6, 1/250 sec., ISO 320
