    Bob:
    I think I am going to call this the "Bob crop". It matches your avatar!

    Perfect eye contact, nice exposure, pretty sharp although I might do a little selective sharpening on the head to really make those eyes pop!

    A bit more canvas the front might help.

    Sounds like you had a good time! Can't beat that.

    Randy

    Love the two feet on the fish. This one works for me depsite the noisy BKGR. The blacks could go a bit brighter. Love the BKGR. There seems to be something funky going on forrward of the near-eye....

    Artie pretty much summed it up. I like the compos very much and eye contact and grasp of the fish put it over the top.

    Nice one, Bob!
    Great eye contact ... crop works well but maybe a bit more room in front of the bird?

    How long does the alewife run usually go on for?
