While concentrating on one of her diving brothers she scooped this up right in fron of me. Just never know.

Pretty cool pose, great to the the tail of the fish. The whites on neck and chest look a bit overexposed.

Interesting perspective and good detail and action. I haven't seen quite this pose before. I agree with Axel about the whites.

Very interesting perspective.... Agree about the whites. I think this is one time when a lower angle might've detracted from the shot as you wouldn't have been able to see into that W-I-D-E open mouth. Looks like the front part of the bill is a little soft.
