This GWE had just speared and swallowed a catfish. This was the first day out with my new lens.

Exceptional detail and sharpness Wayne. Your exposure looks great and I like the black BG. The blood on the beak really draws me in and adds to the interest of this image for me.

Good job Wayne, certainly a unique shot with that blood running up the beak. Enjoy the new toy!

Thanks. I really like this new lens. Bought it a couple days before Nikon put an end to all the internet hype about loose particles inside.
