What a clean shot! Wonder what other shots you got during that series. Well done.

[Joe Galkowski]

Nice image. I love the position of the male. The BG and FG are absolutely pristine. There is nothing to take the eye away from your subjects. Good job covering them in your DoF. F/10 is not what most folks use for birds but you needed it to keep most everything sharp. Well done!

very nice capture,nice color's and light,loverly BG.

[Bill Dix]

Great timing, Mike, along with perfect positions, lovely bg. Excellent in-camera comp. It has a lovely soft feel to it, but I find myself wondering what a tiny contrast boost would do.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Nice clean image with two pleasing pose and superb BG. The fish pointing towards us is icing on the cake

[Frank Schauf]

Great scene and setting you have here.

Great timing! Beautiful BG, light and pose! The exposure is spot on! Well done!
