Lovely flight shot. The catch is a big bonus. I liked the wing spread and the eye contact. Seems there is a tilt to the right, since it is a crop, you can correct it. Your efforts are paying . Thanks for sharing.

Atul,
This is a nice image. Your patience has paid rich dividends. Nice wing spread. You got the eye contact well and the fish in the mouth is great. Well done. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi
PS: The highest shutter speed of the camera is 1/8000.

Shutter speed was 1/1250. It was a typing error.
