I like the glow on the fish - almost a danger light. Sure is danger gor him!
Nicely exposed, nicely composed and certainly good timing!

Omigosh! How did you get this one? I love that the focus is so good you can see the feathers on his back. My only complaint is that the background is a bit busy. I know you couldn't blur it in this challenge but you might want to do that for future uses of this image. It has so much potential for use in other settings.
