‘POV: A 1-in-a-Million Shot’—See the Split-Second Capture

Wildlife photographer Libby Penman recently shared a behind-the-scenes video showing the moment right after she captured a “one-in-a-million shot.” In a split second, Penman snapped a photo of a kingfisher snatching a fish in its beak, its wings extended symmetrically from its body. It really is an incredible photo.
