    Brendon,
    I presume you were very close, something that happens very rarely
    Great detail he/she looks as though you have just been spotted, love the teeth on the Fish, presumably a Tiger?

    I'm OK with the cut wing above, but I wish the primary tip at right was not clipped. I would also get rid of the lower catchlight. Lots of nice action. What type of fish is that with those pointy teeth?? Very cool!!

    Thanks all for your great comments, it is indeed a Tiger Fish for those asking.

    I don't have a problem with the cut wing. Love the action captured here! Great colours and detail. Superb!
