Osprey Fishing no 2
Another Osprey Fishing at Kangasala.

This one is full frame and as you see I have just clipped the wing slightly, but I can live with that....

May book for 3 or 4 days for next year when the Osprey's are busier if anyone fancy's it?? It's no cheaper for groups, 100 euros per person, but probably less lonely!

This was taken at 5am so the light was very poor.

I like it but im still debating the split background...which is a problem at the fishfarm.......and the light is a bit flat,

Barry,
I tend to agree with Rene, & its a real pity you clipped the wings.

Good focus on the fish and the head of the bird, the eye really stands out.

But i find that where the position of the bird is, between the grass and the water is very distracting.Plus the water looks over-exposed on my monitor.
