Nice catch Ray - for you and the osprey. Nice freeze of movement against the background. Clear markings on the bird and good colours on the fish too.

Very good sharpness & exposure Ray, nice POV of the action too.
I especially like the soft BG with its great added interest, & sense of place..
Well done!

Great shot Ray, very very sharp and great action, BG excellent. What more to ask for? just got me one of those toys and anxious to try it seriously (D800).

Excellent. Nice to see a background that isn't sky or water for this species.

Very crisp, Ray. I was doubtful about the separation from the bg in the smaller image, but when I opened the larger one, it really popped. Well done.

Ray,
I missed this ‘Jewel’ when posted as I have been away for a couple of weeks, Outstanding . . .
You nailed all aspects with this capture to perfection.
