This is one from earlier this year, from the shore in my hometown....A better HA on the lower bird would be better, but I do like part of a fish showing.....HH...ACR, Topaz DN, and PS...

That's some serious action, especially on that diving back bird. Low angle is a really cool perspective. Unfortunately, proximity was an issue here, even at 800mm, as most of the frame is empty space. Not much you can do when the birds are over open water though!

Hi Will, very dramatic, especially the diving bird. Nice action, low perspective captures it well. Interesting image, thank you for sharing.
