Great image. Were you in a boat? This is amazingly close with a 70-200

Wow! That's really a great catch. Even a touch of reflection too. Great crop. :)

I recall that you said these were large otters and the "bow wave" certainly indicates this is a large animal.

:) :)

Love the head on look with both eyes seeming to focus on you. The bow wave with a bit of the otter visible through the wave both also add a lot here. Nicely done.
