When he flew in it was low and slow as this was a pretty large carp and very much alive, so the wrestling match and balancing act went on for quite awhile. This is its' feeding post , but I do wish it was a tree stump or something. Taken in Cardiff, Ca. at San Elijo Lagoon. I appreciate all comments and critiques, they help.
Chris, I love the feel of this image. Wing spread is great and the fish a huge bonus. Colors look great and nice DOF. I would run some noise reduction on the BG and maybe selectively sharpen the fish a little more. Congrats
This is terrific. Love your composition. The BG is very interesting and adds to the feel... it's a very visceral image. Wouldn't mind seeing a follow-up post of the feast.
