The Braided Rangitata River

The Braided Rangitata River

Photo by Robert Sanson

An aerial view of the Upper Rangitata River, looking towards the confluence of the Havelock and Clyde Rivers, taken in March 2020. It showcases a braided river ecosystem, favoured nesting site of some of the world's rarest birds, including Kaki (Black Stilt), Wrybills (the only bird in the world with a beak bent sidewards) and the Black-billed gull. Taken with my Olympus E-M1 MkII, with a 11-22 mm lens. Settings were ISO 200, f9, 1/160s

A good photo is not taken, rather it is a gift from the Creator.
