    The spray of water, the twist of the fish, the upsweep of wing feathers on the downstroke bring this whole image to life TIM---a great look at a master fisher with good focus on the eyes of both the predator and the prey.

    Neat! I love the twisting fish - perhaps a touch more selective sharpening on it would be good. I wish the near wing was raised a bit higher for a perfect world situation, but I'd gladly keep this in my files anytime!

    Your weather sounds just like out Nova Scotia weather.
    This image is all about the twisty fish!
    I like all the water spay.
    I would clone out that little bit of red in the water at the top of the wave mid right frame. I wonder what that is?
    I would have loved a slightly better near wing position but definitely like what you have here.
    Yes to a bit more sharpening on fish and head of osprey,
    Gail

    Thanks everyone, it's always great to have a few more eyeballs on an image to see things that I missed.

    Hi Tim, agree with the above comments and suggestions. Cool action with the splash and the look at the fish. I got a chance to photograph osprey fishing in Florida a couple years ago and it was a blast. TFS
