Otter Rising.

I had been watching the otter hunting and diving in the river,here in the Scottish Borders.Occasionally it would rise straight up from a dive and I was fortunate enough to anticipate where this would happen,by focusing ahead of the line of bubbles as it swam underwater.
Canon MkIV,500mm+1.4,1/500 f5.6 and iso400.
Thanks for looking and any comments.
