All comments are appreciated. Thanks.
One lucky bird and one lucky photographer :)
Good light, compo and exposure. I'd probably rotate a bit CW for easier viewing.
Great picture, nice light, color and DOF. Only wish the fish was heading the other direction. Again beautiful shot.
Besides what Fab said, I would add a little more sharpening. Amazing they can eat so much!! :)
Very nice light and what a catch....for both you and the GBH! Lovely image.
Great shot, the light is superb, the natural moment could be better specially with such a big catch, I wish the head was a bit sharper but other than that, I just love it! Congratulations!
Love the proud pose and the gorgeous light. I would sharpen a bit more.
A very nice bird and very proud of his catch I'm sure! A little bit more of sharpness would be fine IMO.
Great catch both of you. Another vote for more sharpening.
Wow, what a great moment and you chose the perfect title for the image!
[Loved it when i first saw it and love it still, looks pretty sharp to me Judy great shot of this beautiful bird, very nicely done.
Lovely image with a natrual history twist! Outstanding...
wow, what a great shot Judy!! Congrats.
Nice capture Judy! did you get a whole series of him flipping it up to eat it?
Hi Bill
Thanks for your comments and to answer your question. He was a marvelous model and I had the privelge of watching him throw it down and spearing it and then eventually swallowing it. A great experince and incredible to think that such a small throat could accomodate such a big fish !!!!
