Hi Dale - love that pose - those talons are awesome.

Is this a very large crop?? or was it under exposed??? Seeing some strange artifacting in the water and the underwing area's seem to be funky as well and looking quite soft --- unless it is just my screen.

Maybe these happpened in PP??

:)

[Dale Lorenzen]

Yes very large crop - did try to sharpen a little maybe went to far - he was a long way off. thanks

Hi Dale,
A very nice capture indeed...Love the action here...agree with Mr. Peters on the soft subject and the washed out look, might want to increase saturation and contrast just a tad, would also run noise reduction...looking forward to your next one...:cool:

[Nonda Surratt]

Love that action!

Agree with Lance and Gus

[Alfred Forns]

Dale stick a 2X on that lens !!! Will be a good trade off !!! Love the action and btw would shoot wide open .. even with the converter !!!

[Cheryl Flory]

[KurtPreston]

Absolutely beautiful action caught at the perfect moment, I can just hear the fish screaming :)

[Dale Lorenzen]
