This image was taken on the same pond as my previous post. I think the techs here are a tad better, but this is a large crop. I watched this guy toss the fish for what seemed several minutes until he was ready to swallow it. I hazard a post because this is, I think, pretty cool action.

Very cool action, Charles and the image is holding up pretty well to the crop.

I don't think the crop effected the quality much here Charles. It held up real well. Nice action!
