The fish looks like a Sea Bass that has seriously shap spines on its back, I would love to see the shot of it in its gullet!!:eek:

Nice shot.

Manos, what a catch. Amazing. great moment captured. loved the clean view of the fish. If the IQ holds, up, some cropping from bottom is one suggestion from my end.

[Dave McGowen]

Wow! that is going to be a tough meal. I too would a little off the bottom and I wish the white diagonal lines in the background water were not there. But an exciting image of a unique natural moment!

[Humberto Ramos]

A nice meal that would last at least for a week :bg3:
Agree with dave about the white diagonal lines...

[Brendan Dozier]

Great action shot, Manos! What a catch is right, that will feed the whole family. Nice job!

[Colin Driscoll]

As an old saying goes "eyes bigger than its belly". Nice shot and IMO the white lines are overpowered by the action. However you would be able to tone them down somewhat or even eliminate them. Well captured.

[David Stephens]

Yeah, great action and sharpness.

I'd crop up from the bottom and some of the left to minimize the diagonal lines without cloning.

Great flying water and predicament of the bird.

[Dumay de Boulle]

Very cool moment and nice detail...Like the splashes. Great catch...Both of you:bg3:

[Giovanni Frescura]

Great moment..and very sharpening detail
