This is from a few years back but it's one I really like. I watched this Grebe for some time chasing and finally catching this small catfish.

Nice eye contact,timing and reflection,I would prefer a lower angle!

[Judy Lynn Malloch]

Very lovely reflection with pretty lighting on the front of the grebe and would love to have seen a little more light on the back, Good detail and nicely framed Thanks for sharing.

Awesome image Tony, very nice. A little off the right side for me.

[Jody Melanson]

This is a wonderful image! A lower angle as Manos suggests, would definitely improve it. The whites on the fish's belly are a bit distracting...

[Axel Hildebrandt]

Great details and reflection. The fish adds to it but I would tone down the whites. The angle has been mentioned.

[Arthur Morris]

Lovely COMP and fish. You might get rid of the shine above and in front of the eye. Here would be a neat approach to the blown whites. Create a QM of the belly of the REFL, flop it vertically, warp/distort as needed, and then lighten it a bit...

later and love, artie

ps; Could not resist...

Thank you all for your suggestions. I can see I still have a lot to learn but with your help I know it can only get better.

Artie, I like your changes. Thank you,

[Arthur Morris]

YAW sir! Later and love, artie

Beautiful image Antonio I love the reflection and the snack is an added plus. I agree with Mike about taking some off the right.
