Holy cow! I don’t have any critiques for this one! What gear did you use?

 

[Krümelkraft]

Absolutely phenomenal!
Would have been nice if the fish was in focus, too, but well... 99.5 out of 100

Thanks...I had to use a narrow depth of field to allow a faster shutter speed in lowish light.

Great catch -- and color palette.

Simply stunning...

Nicely composed with the bird looking into the frame. This is a good example of razor thin DOF. In this case it works well in isolating the bird but against in that the fish's tail is blurred. That's the only nit to point out. Overall really well done.

Yeah, bloody awesome for sure. And yes, it would be nice if the fish was in focus, but doesn't take it from the awesome tier. I have never been able to get even remotely close enough to a kingfisher to get something like this. Very impressive.
