Weekly Challenge #724

Like Fish out of the Water

Back to NPN after a hiatus of close to two years.  Hopefully, I will have more opportunities to dedicate to photography. 

This is an archive image and I thought it would fit the weekly challenge theme "Big and Little".  Canon 7D, Sigma 150-500 at 267, 1/1250 sec, f/10, ISO 500, HH sitting position.  PP in LR/PS and NIK, significant crop.

All comments are much appreciated. Thank you for all your comments on my previous photos.

Welcome back, Roger.  I remember your participation and look forward to seeing more of your images.  This is a beauty with the light coming through the pouch and those two little fish that almost look like they're dancing in the open bill.  Nice work.

Roger, welcome back.  This is an outstanding action catch with the water spray, the two (amazingly tiny) fish and the backlit pouch.  Sadly you posted this a day late for WC 724.  If you'd like I can move it to Avian...send me an email letting me know.
