Wow Bill! So much action in this shot. The splash of water, the wing brushing the edge of the water, the fish catch. And what we don't see in real time, yet feel so strongly is the powerful wings and ascent upwards from the catch. A video might have shown this all in sequence and smoothly follow that action, but only an image like this could capture that all in a moment of time to be enjoyed whenever you wanted to view it again. Excellent timing, excellent image! #9977219
