    Fishing at Viera Wetlands was good on Thursday.

    I did not think their were any Tilapia left in Viera after the first cold front the click pond was loaded with dead fish. you did a good job handling the difficult lighting conditions and I like how the fins are translucent from the back lighting.

    Great shot, Layton. I like the way the curved background frames the bird and fish. Difficult back-lighting, but well edited and very interesting shot. Love the orange-pink of the beak and throat. As for the fish, to the victor belongs the spoils!:D

    Lovely sighting. Ditto Tom on the BG mirroring the bird. I would tone down the light bits in the BG top left & right.
