The story behind the image:
Decided to travel to the Great Plains of Hungary (less than 1.5h to drive) for birding. Spent 3 hours on a boat ride with a local guide in a protected area of the lake called Tisza-tó. A real paradise for birds, different heron species, seagulls, terns everywhere. I was very happy that we could approach birds within 10 metres..and glad that I had the opportunity to take some backlight shots, too.
