The kingfisher
Moment that last fraction of second was captured once for good. It shows how kingfisher grabs the fish underwater in all its glory.
The shot was made at small lake in Mala Subotica in Croatia where this beautiful bird lives. It took weeks and thousands of shots to get one right and this one came out perfect. It represents flawless precision, blistering speed and skill of the animal.
This is awesome Petar. We just had a "Beauty of the Birds" assignment this photo would have been an excellent frame to consider submitting. I love your commitment into getting this image, you did an excellent job. I love the shapes created by the bubbles coming off the bird. I just love that you got this photo. Congratulations. Very well done.
