Reddish Egret Sushi dinner

We both got lucky....the egret got the fish and I got the moment.

Lucky perhaps, but you were there, in good position, and with the skill to capture the moment. A lovely shot with great fish-flip, beautiful fg/bg, nice light. For my personal taste, just a little more room on the left might help, but that's a minor nit.

Lovely shot gorgeous ambience about the image. I would make the bird a tad lower in the frame

You couldn't have timed this one any better, with the fish slap bang in the middle of the beak with the trailing water as an added bonus. Just about low enough so the BG lines don't interfere, nice work Lorant.

Hi Lorant, good DOF, and I really like how you have brought out the feather detail. Well timed to capture the fish between the mandibles, and the flying droplets add interest. I would like to see a version in traditional landscape format - unless there is something on the LHS out of frame.
