I was able to catch several gaters having their lunch. This photo I like the best. I feel sorry for the fish. Some noise removal and about 25% cropped. All c's & c' appreciated!

Nice catch! Poor fish.. but excellent image.
Seems to need a bit of contrast to make the 'gator pop, and I'd suggest a bit off the left side.
Nice eye on both.

Poor fish indeed

I like it that you managed to capture both the eyes of the gator and the fish. The light was not very co-operative, which rendered the image a bit flat. I would follow Sandy's advice to make the subjects pop a bit more. On top of that I would be tempted to crop a little tighter to lose that vegetation on top as well as to make this more 'intimate'.
