BEST KINGFISHER EVER!!!!!
Absolutely gorgeous!

Man, you must get a rush when you see an image like that in your viewfinder and know you nailed it! Excellent on all counts both artistic and technical. Maybe would've liked to see just a bit of separation between tip of tail and perch (the wooden one:p).
Good neutral background. What would you think about moving the subject just a little to the right. Maybe just to center the eye. These subjects never hold still for me. One of my favorite Kingfisher Images!
Alan,
Outstanding photo. Nothing but admiration for everything about it.

Great shot, composition is perfect, I already knew this photo from yor site...but I love to see it again in bigger...I think the one you have in your site has a bit more of saturation...
Best king fisher image in my book Alan. Great job.
Hi Alan,
A beautiful hen with a huge catch. Did she beat it agains the perch before eating it? I watch them do that all the time at my kingfisher hole. I think Humberto is right that one more notch of saturation might bring out the natural color of the slate blue on this species....just a thought. Take care.

A real beauty Alan! Great composition, perch and pose.
Classy image..Great light detail and BG...The perch makes it for me...Nicely done Alan
excellent capture
Even I saw this photo several times each time it looks beautiful and fascinating.
Stunning image. Simply stunning. The clarity and detail are excellent and, of course, having the fish is the icing on the cake. Top stuff :D
I like the light, detail and sharpness, and good to see his catch.
Beautiful, sharp kingfisher shot. Composition is perfect for me. I would probably mask off the background and up the saturation a hair just on the bird/twig. Superb!

Unmistakably your style Alan:) Superb technicals, would consider a bit more saturation
