this is a stunning shot the only thing I would have done differently would have been to crop the image a little to make it less about the sky & more about the bird & its it

Thank you very much. I played with cropping yet none of my photos are post edited and I decided to keep it intact. I like to keep my photos as taken, it adds to their tale to me.

Behind The Lens

Location

This shot was taken at the longtime location of the historic Avalon Seawatch.

Time

Afternoon...

Lighting

Great light, just enough angle and some reflection.

Equipment

I used my Canon SX720HS point and shoot freehand.

Inspiration

After putting up a purple martin house with my Dad. We came across a bunch of ospreys fishing with a pod of dolphins. I wanted to not only try for a great shot yet also find out what kind of fish caused the excitement. I was very pleased to have captured and found out - striped bass!

Editing

None of my photos have post processing. Although, I did play with it on this photo, I liked all the blue and the location of the osprey in frame and decided to keep with my standard. I feel keeping it as taken adds life to my photography.

In my camera bag

Lately I have been taking a camera alone. I have at times also had a video camera, tripod(s), binoculars, and/or spotting scope.

Feedback

I like to use my camera in my 'study of Creation and have enjoyed sharing what I have lived.
