Kria (Arctic Tern) — The focused angler
Lens: Super-Takumar 6X7 2.4/105 Camera: Pentax K7 Photo Location: Reykjavik, Iceland ISO: 400 Shutter Speed: 1/750s 
Posted By: jt_cph_dk, 11-27-2013, 05:01 AM

The Kria (arctic tern) is busy all day long, working in shifts with their partner, catching fish for their single chick. Constantly one is out fishing, while the other one guards the home (not really a nest, just a spot) and takes a rest.

1. Super-Takumar 6X7 4/200+ Pentax 67 2X TC, 1/160sec at ISO1600, 25% crop (sorry about the ISO, I was hunting high speed aviators, when I saw this quiet scene).
2. Super-Takumar 6X7 2.4/105 1/800sec at ISO400, 50% crop.
