Sea eagle diving
I know it's a classic Norway pic but I like this one because of the light hitting the bird. Also the pose and the tail feathers spreading just above water level. Well, maybe I'm wrong. I let you decide :toast:

Groet Edwin, pose, detail spot on as usual and with the dark blue of the sea, the light really does lift the bird, I won't use that over used word 'separates' :wink: Works for me Edwin. :toast: :toast:

Trust you were not lobbing fish of the boat :biggrin:

'Standing in boat'? So this was one of the dives where Ole didn't have to re position the boat at the last moment then disturbing your natural equilibrium and resulting in much profanity?


Yup, that's the one :biggrin:

Thanks everyone!!!

Hello Edwin.

Excellent capture and full frame standing in a boat. Your skills are way better than mine and its perfectly framed as well.

Super work.
