This guy tried for weeks to escape my lens and did a darn good job of it. BUT---one day he wasn't paying attention and I got him!!

magnifique!
very nice. Great work.
Persistence pays big dividends:) Great reflection.
Well done! The water must be deeper than it seems!
Splendid capture!
The moment of capture you found that long, pointed head in the perfect place. Fabulous work.
Clarity, color blends, contrast, reflections and light/shadow effects beyond spectacular in this excellent ninja foto, Maz! The birdie never knew what hit him until it was too late.
Hehe... you certainly did! Such a great image! Wonderful reflection; he seems to be intrigued by it, himself... excellent lighting!
Wow, were you that close? Amazing!!!
Wonderful capture and reflection. Another nemesis bits the dust. Dana
Nice one! I'm totally impressed. The reflection is cool, too!
woderful job
Very well done :)
Oh, his attention was with that gorgeous dude below him... LOL... Great catch Marilyn! I love these fellows! :)
Excellent capture!!
Oh he's paying attention all right, just not to you. I think some little fish is about to be his "Gotcha!"
Hmmmmm??? Put a mirror in front of him and his trapped for hours...lol Nice capture. Aloha
WouahOU OU
excellent picture!!!!
great capture my friend :)
Oh Wow! Is this your famous nemisis? I've heard of him...and I have to say that he's quite striking and rather elegant...and thin like a supermodel, which he probably is, which explains why he's so hard to capture. But you caught him and you did so perfectly. That water does look a bit deeper than I'd originally have thought, and his reflection is so well done! You have such a good eye. And just so you know, I have a nemesis too...a little four legged critter who'd be dead meat if I had a cat. (A mouse has moved in with me, and I want to catch him [by hand no less] and take him to the vet to make sure he's not carrying anything itchy or nasty...because he's my next pet, like it or not...but that's a long, long story involving...well...me and my nemesis...a frikkin' mouse. But he stands up on his hind legs before surveying the room he's about to scurry across. It's cute and bold, and he knows how to avoid traps that I've taken to springing just so they won't kill him. I've nearly caught him by hand three times. I need practice.) Anyway that mouse rant is totally unnecessary, but all of it is to say that I love this picture, and it underscores my understanding of having an animal nemesis.
sweet capture and reflection
Wonderful Marilyn you sure did got him well captured!!
They can be very camera shy. Great image and fantastic reflection. Did you do that little victory dance afterwards (I gotcha! Yeeesss!)?
