A common subject uncommonly well photographed. The light is lovely, but the water splash steals the show.
Gary:
Soft light, nice shooting angle, action, splash, exposure, all good. Nice to be able to see both the big splash and eye so well. Head is a bit away, but works well here.
Nice one.

Sweet light and killer splash. I too would have liked to have seen the bird's head on straight. The fish simply needed to be swimming a bit closer to you! But the image is effective as posted.
I agree, the splash really makes this stand out.
Thank you all I appreciate you time and comments. Gary.
Awesome splash, and a surprisingly big water bulge at the surface! I love the water reflections on the plumage. For some reason I keep getting the impression the image may need 1/2 degree or so CW rotation - it may be an illusion played on me by the angle of that water bulge and ripple beyond it at right?
