Used content aware to remove some unwanted branches. Large crop, does it still hold up? Had to tone down the whites too.

Love the detail - exposure looks good - good HA - light looks good. Not a happy day for the fish ;)

Nice shot! Congrats.

Congrats Jackie. Great capture with lots of details and sharpness. The fish still had the head which normally comes off real quick.
Regards,

Hi Jackie, Nice job on this! As stated good light,detail,subjects position and bonus fish which adds alot of interest. If this were mine I would take a bit off the top. Nicely handled...

[Jackie Schuknecht]

Thanks for the comments, and yes Oscar, this fish very quickly became headless:)
