This is an image that every bird photographer dreams of, many try to get, and only a lucky few ever experience the thrill. I know I have stood many hours on the shore of a river where the osprey fish with my camera all ready, and have seen it happen; but never been fast enough to do what you have done here. It must have been a one-in-a-lifetime experience. Congratulations!

Paul Marto replied:

Thanks Robert...it was certainly a case of being in the right place at the right time with a healthy dose of good luck too! :)
