Thanks,

I am liking the dramatic pose with the wings forward, splash and the fish being visible. excelletn texture in the water. Well done.

Nice frozen action Ruhikant. I do wish we could see a bit more of the fish. I might look at trying to coax out some additional shdow detail in the plummage in RAW conversion.

Even looking at the thumbnail I could tell right away this was an LD#14 shot - they seem to have a distinct look to them (perhaps it's the water or angle of view?). I've never been to LD #14 - is it possible to get a lower to the water perspective there?

like the others have said, really great image! Definitely one of my favorite Eagle pictures I have seen!
