The black-necked grebes dance their wedding dance. Like penguins, they straighten up in the water by stretching their bodies upward and paddling their feet vigorously. Chest to chest they swim opposite each other.
The "penguin dance" is the highlight of the black-necked grebe's diverse courtship repertoire. It was great luck that the day was almost windless and we could also capture this special moment with an almost perfect reflection.
A beautiful picture, that first of all convinces by the rarely observed moment of capture. The exact focus on both birds and the clear air provide a high level of detail. The colors are brilliant and natural. Nothing distracts from the main subject. An image for large, but also smaller rooms.
