Anhinga Flip #2

[Roman Kurywczak]

I posted one of these earlier and Alfred wanted one with the head separated from the lilly pad. The mouth isn't quite as open as in the previous........but I do think the separation improves it. Canon 1D Mark 3 and the Sigma 300-800mm at 501 and ISO 800 at f9 and 1/1000 sec.
Comments welcomed and appreciated,

Cool moment captured. I like the setting and the fish adds to it. The bird looks a bit oversharpened on my monitor.

[Manos Papadomanolakis]

Great timing,agree that looks a bit oversharpened,otherwise a great shot!

[Haim Ziv]

Wow!! this is amazing shoot.

[Steve Maxson]

Very cool image, Roman! Great action, perfect head angle, nice light, prime breeding colors. Agree about the oversharpening - especially around the eye.

[Daniel Cadieux]

I find the darker leaf above the bill distracting, but very nice image. Great timing, and I like the half submerged body!

[Jim Poor]

You can't beat that sort of timing for sure! Nice sharp eye too. I'm undecided on the vegetation.

[Steve Wheeler]

Great timing and image. The lilli pads here aren't distracting to me.

The lilly pads are fine with me ,thats where he finds his little prey. Great timing.
