Just the Head

A red-wattled lapwing's head rises just above a dreamy wash of soft grass, with purple wildflowers melting into bokeh behind. An arty, low-angle frame that turns a common bird into fine art. Fun fact: Shooting low like this — down at the subject's eye level — is a wildlife photographer's favourite trick: it throws foreground and background into soft blur and pulls the viewer right into the animal's world.
