Ibis with Crab

[Roman Kurywczak]

Working through some of my florida stuff this morning when i came across this one.......Taken in Little Estero using the Mark 3 with the Sigma 300-800mm lens at 648mm for 1/4000 sec at f7.1 and ISO 800. Debated removing the water bubbles and drops......but left most in.
As always comments welcomed and appreciated.

Roman... Beautiful light, placement of Ibis, sharpness and crab all add up to a beautiful image!! Glad you left the bubbles and drops in. I think they add to the interest...

I love everything about it except it looks a little tight for such a big bird. Great profile on the crab.

Well caught, Roman. Excellent sharpness on the head and bill with the prey. Bubbles and drops fine with me. Agree re more room.

[Ákos Lumnitzer]

Probably a tad tight but all other elements fabulous. Great capture. :)

A beauty Roman. I really like the light and I am always intrigued by the light reflections on birds. More room at the top is all that is needed.

[Daniel Cadieux]

I agree with keeping the bubbles there. I also agree with giving more room above, and wish you could have gotten a lower angle. I like the included snack!

[Doug Brown]

The crab really makes this image Roman! Agree with the others about a little more room and a lower shooting angle.

I like it, love the crab, would vote for a bit more of a side view and of course, for a bit more room.
