Pick Up and Fly : Osprey

We took a 4 hour cruise up the Kalgan River on the Kalgan Queen. As I had a camera I was forewarned where the fish would be thrown and be ready it was over in seconds but I have 4 stunning sequences from fish floating on the water pick up and fly away in this shot you can see where, pick up and fly away. It pays to keep Both eyes open and watch the bird fly in and out.

There was no luck in the shot when you know how to use a camera properly and the right lens but a lot of blank phones though...

Thank you Nick i really pays to know a lot about your camera when trying this. 20 shots stunning from first going into the water to get the fish to flying away. I was very happy the planning and a little bit of thought worked so well.
