Wow that's a fantastic shot John :toast: excellent detail throughout and perfectly timed. Being pickey I'd say a little more space on the left and some taken of the right would help.

John, Great pic, must have been hard to get the exposure correct, well done.

Cheers

Hi John,

Lovely action shot. My only nit would be the pieces of bloodied fish scattered about. Can I ask which tour company you used for this trip? :toast:

Must be a test of your metering to get detail in the blacks. I also would like a little more space on the left or less on the right for balance, don't mind the fish though.
