I chose this image from a series because the shape of the fish is apparent in the neck of the cormorant as he swallows it whole. It was kinda fun to watch.
Canon 1DMarkIII, 400mm DO, f/4 1/1250 ISO 500. Comments appreciated.
Cool moment captured. I also like the pose and might remove the dark band in the middle of the bird's neck. If it is not a heavy crop, I would sharpen a bit more.
Great action, pose, and lunch. The inside of the mouth and the right side of the face look as if they were lightened considerably. There are three light blue circles near the top of the frame.
