[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
An Osprey taking his fish albeit small.
They were coming around every 20 minutes or so, diving down and coming up with the small fish in the pond near the fields.
Thanks for the views.
Been absent a lot lately, but trying to gather material for here.

Hallo Doug
I just like the way how this guy looks straight into the camera. The eye contact is really great. Well taken shot of this Osprey. Crisp clear with all details clearly seen. Good composition and lovely light blue sky as backdrop. Once again a technique I envy, but I give you the credit and the deserved smiley. I thank you kindly for sharing. Friendly regards
Anna

Hi Doug,
Very nice shot.I liked POV,moment you caught,eye contact and composition a lot.
Thanks for posting.

Spettacolare cattura in volo, eccellenti POV e composizione di tipo simmetrico con il punto focale tutto sugli occhi di questo splendido rapace, buona nitidezza, molto belli i colori con una buona resa nonostante il contrasto di luce. Grazie e complimen tio. Ciao Maurizio

Hi Doug
I also was busy last time and I could not look at your work.
This photo is really good. Sarp, well composed, with good colours.
Congratulations

Hi Doug

Great timing and excellent POV - the eyes especially. Expertly done.

I am back in the UK now - but for future reference I would be interested in the locations you mentioned.

James

Another one of your great shots!
Great clear image. Love it that we can see the eyes so clearly. This osprey spotted you, no doubt! How wonderful!!!
