Hey, Thunderbird --

That shot should be worth stock-photo residuals forever. Never mind the obvious use on countless mag covers just now. Ad accounts should see endless potential with this. It needs good 'legal use' protection.

I'm not as heavy a shooter as others on this forum, tho photo nut for over 65 years. But I don't recall ever seeing a more spectacular still shot of an animal event.

Thanks for sharing......

Don M


Don,
65 years!! wow! It's an honor to be complimented by you. Thank you, Sir!

Submit it Andy....you'll be on the payroll in no time
I'll just echo the the comments thus far and add I feel lucky to have seen this once in a lifetime image.

Thank you for the advice and thank you for not holding back on your compliment.

Did that big trout end up getting swallowed by that skinny necked Egret ??


No, at least not right away. From what I could see, there were no winners in that fight.

Wow! Great shot! I think someone's due for a visit to the chiropractor after that twisted neck, though.

amazing, This photo took my breath away. You have inspired me to go out that much more to take photos. hoping that I one day will be able to take a photo of this standard.


I started out the same way - being inspired by seeing a great photo. I'm just glad that I can return the favor. Thank you.
Wishing you success!
