Iridescence. GX1, Leitz Telyt-V 280mm.

I had time to go Blip hunting down at the weir this morning with the bigger Telyt 280mm lens. It's a beast to hand hold and manually focus because of the size and narrow depth of field even when stopped down. The small Electronic View Finder on the GX1 doesn't make matters easier. I waited for Mr. Mallard to paddle into the sun to bring out the lovely color of his plumage.
