What a nice catch..for both of you. These guys are fast, not easy to follow them with the 600 +TC. Water drops are bonus, BG is sweet. Not an easy exposure either and you did an amazing job IMO. Thanks for sharing.

Hi James, that catch is what we would call a morsel of food. Super comp, and I like the light here. Water droplets do add a lot, and that is one killer two tone BG. Well captured.
Fantastic image James! I like the pose and I especially like the the sharp details. Very nice to see the little fish w/ the eye so clear. The gradient BG is lovely.
Hi James
Excellent exposure, timing , detail .I like the wing position.TFS

Tough bird and not easy with a 6 and a 1.4. Results are outstanding. Love the detail.

Too good. The fish and the sharpness are perfect. I would suggest a crop from the bottom as for me, this one needs to be a 3X2. Not sure why :)

Excellent! I did not notice the droplets at first, then they jumped off the screen. Congrats!
Fantastic details James. Great eye contact for a BIF image.
