Hello Zeno,
This is a real beauty!
The pose with a ciclid fish in its bill is extraordinary. The sharpness, composition, lighting and BG add to make this superb image that I am putting in my favourites.
Thanks for sharing this delight,
Ivan

Hallo Zeno,
Vaak gezien deze vissers, maar nooit zo bijna en dan nog wel met vis. Prachtige foto in scherp licht, maar goede belichting. Daardoor komen de kleuren goed uit. Schitterende achtergrond.Ook de scherpte is top. Uitstekende timing en compositie.
Groet,
Peter

Hi Zeno,

Wonderful catch for you and this handsome looking bird. Great timing to get him with the big fish in his beak. He is a striking looking bird and you show him in excellent details and colors. The pose couldn't be better.

Hi Zeno,

Wow! what a good timing you had for this shot. You've captured this kingfisher with great sharpness, nice vivid colours and what about the prey, we can see the fish's eye also. I'm very impressed, congratulations!

Hallo Zeno
Splendid image of this kingfisher with lots of detail to appreciate. A well focused photo with nice light effects. I like the way of the pose showing its profile and the back of the plumage. To me, this kingfisher is very slender but very majestic. I like the brilliance in its eye and the visibility of its tongue. That fish in its beak is a bonus adding speciality to this splendidly framed and delightful photo. Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards
Anna
