Anyone who's ever struggled to get a shot of a bird, you might want to take a look at this: http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=4915172 This is good, isn't it..? The photographer spent 8 days in a hide to get this shot... some dedication..!

Holy smokes that's a great shot! But 8 days... I don't even wanna THINK about needing to go to the bathroom (guessing he went to and from the hide daily - but it's fun to think about in a sick way - hehe)!

Thats one of the best predator/prey action shots I have ever seen. Check out his websites. http://www.miguellasa.com/

Question the question. Answer the question. Question the answer...

Aside from some slightly blown highlights, a perfect nature shot of a raptor catching a fish. Thanks for sharing that Geert, I am really impressed by his dedication. And Miguels work is amazing too, thanks Dovid.

I would say the moment is more important in this type of shot....not about the highlights Kort...have seen far worse on here!!!!!
Well done for the photographer!!

I know Jim, I was just trying to find SOMETHING that could have been better...very hard with that nearly perfect photo. I'd be happy if I was able to capture on image like that in a whole year.

8 days !!!

I would have put a fish in a glass tank submerged just below the surface where the bird usually hunts.  

Seems to work for the nature films and pro photographers.

And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve.

Wow, that is just amazing. I'm not sure if it's depressing or inspiring!
