    Very dramatic lighting!
    I think the IQ is excellent.
    Love the body position of the fish and great that you can see the eyes of both bird and fish.

    Excellent, complete image, Frank. Amazing techs to get everything so nicely in the Depth of field and sharp with a slow shutter speed.

    Very nice Frank. Everything came together nicely. If anything I would try to tone down the upper part of the fish a bit, but that is really searching for something!! One to be proud of.

    Amazing action shot, Frank. Did the Kingfisher manage the swallow this big fish?
