    Default Catch your own fish

    At the everglades. D2X w 600/4 and 14x. f5.6@1/2500 sec, iso 320, EC 0.
    This one was watching a soaring eagle above but managed to get by unchallenged.
    Thanks for looking, Rick

    I love the fish in the clutches of the Osprey! I'd like to see a better head angle on the bird. And I would brighten the fish a little. Perhaps a bit more room in front of the bird.

    Natural moment is great, light was not ideal and it feels a tad underxposed, HA could be better and wing position is nice, fish position is great to me. Congratulations.

    I like the action you captured. The fish is a plus. If you haven't already lightened the under side of the wing and fish brightening them up a bit in processing might help. I gave this a quick try in photoshop to better show what I was saying. I used shadow/highlight adjustment layer. You could probably do better with a little more effort. I hope you don't mind.

    Agree on the head angle, nice catch for both of you. There's a cyan cast to the whole image.

    I like that you can see the entire crappie in the bird's talons, nice capture!
