Stunning. Just look at this image of a kingfisher diving by Mario Cea Sanchez

Strange image that - the reflection does not show the "vapour trail". Pretty bonkers image though - great timing. I'm guessing it must have been a 2nd curtain sync flash to get the vapour trail if it isn't 'shopped.
 
Cheers for sharing ,now those guys can make a picture !!!!! Proper inspiring stuff !!

It's there on my laptop as a distant streak if I look at it. I was wondering if it was a mirrored image.
 
It's a very clever setup shot and the colour and sharpness are superb, my personal favourite would be the Vulture with the feeding frenzy behind him ... nice to see a Bempton Cliffs Gannet in the lineup. :)
 
The Water Rail is a strange shot -don't know how that got in there ....... looks to me like Mario, (same guy who took the KF?), likes a little photoshopping - did the photographers have to submit the original files?
