Dramatic light which works for me, not quite backlit but close. Love the raised feathers/expression and catch. Would have been nice having the fish turned our way. Excellent image !!!
Ditto Alfred! I would have preferred a slightly lower angle (not always possible I know) and I suggest more space at the bottom to allow for the submerged legs.
Agree with Alfred and Chris on comments. The raised crest is great. The point that makes the lighting work for me is that the eye is bright, not shadowed.
Def. a bit more room for the legs/feet. The reflection in the water is a bit distracting to me.
