"Three Eyes"

[Mikko Viljamaa]

Again from Fort Desoto. I spent my second morning with a wet butt after photoing this guy fishing for an hour. I wish I could show little more details on that wing but the sun came out just when I had my best opportunity.


Cheers,

Mikko

Like that low angle and the fish really adds to the image.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Terrific low angle, and good job on the exposure. I'm sure there is more details to extract from that wing - experiment with the recovery and/or highlights sliders in your raw converter of choice.

Love the catch, and the fact we see the fish face towards us. Comp-wise I'd crop off a bit more below, and although the wavelet looks neat I really wish it would have been behind the legs rather than in front.

P.S. awesome breeding colours on this fella!!

excellent low angle, I also like the prey item

I like this a lot...The exp is spot on and the IQ looks great...Lovely angle with rippled water...Looks like the breeding colors

I have spent many happy hours at Ft. Desotos. Beautiful photograph...love the catch...was this taken recently?

Nice pic!
If you can't recover from RAW you can do a highlight recovery in PS...

[James Salywoda]

Superb! Great low angle and tack sharp this is a sweet shot.
