After 6 Years and 720,000 Pictures He Finally Got 'The Perfect Shot'
The Perfect Shot
Usually, the perfect shot is the one you never get. But this photographer insisted, until he did. This is it.
2 6 Years To Get It
It took 6 years, and over 700.000 shots. But he was determined to get it. Meet Alan McFadyen, a Scotland based wildlife photographer,
The News
His photograph of a kingfisher diving into a lake caught the attention of the media.
The Story
Alan wanted to recreate an image he remembered from his childhood. When he was a little boy, his grandfather took him to see a kingfisher nesting spot.
A Childhood Memory
He saw a bird dive into the water, and never forgot that moment.
Many Long Hours In The Hide
It took 4,200 hours to capture that shot.
Perfection
To get the picture he wanted, he had TONS of patience. The female kingfisher only dives 5 times a day. But, 40 years later, he finally payed homage to his grandfather.
