This photograph was taken by the photographer Alan McFadyon and was reported in the UK Daily Mail on 23 November 2015.

It took the photographer something like 4,200 hours over a 6 year period and 720,000 camera shots to obtain this image, which was what he was aiming for from the beginning. I just find it amazing and hope one or two of our members also find it of interest.

You can take a copy of this photo if you wish. Alan Mcfadyen, who took the photo, is on Instagram under his full name or you could take a look at https://www.wired.com/2016/01/alan-mcfadyen-kingfisher-dive/ which will give you more background regarding this photo and the dedication it took to obtain it. I too was just amazed by it. Glad you enjoyed it.
