Title: The Perfect Kingfisher Picture Captured After 6 Years Post by: imran on December 03, 2015, 01:11:22 AM Alan McFadyen has been a wildlife photographer since 2009 and has just managed to capture a photo that he's been trying to take ever since. McFadyen believes it took him 4,200 hours and 720,000 photos in order to capture the perfect photo of a kingfisher diving straight down into the water the second before impact.
“The photo I was going for of the perfect dive, flawlessly straight, with no splash” McFadyen told The Herald Scotland. “I would often go and take 600 pictures in a session and not a single one of them be any good. But now I look back on the thousands and thousands of photos I have taken to get this one image, it makes me realise just how much work I have done to get it.” Alan McFadyen first became a wildlife photographer in 2009 and ever since then he's been trying to capture the perfect kingfisher photo.

So when I took up photography I returned to this same spot to photograph the kingfishers.”
