I would imagine that I would have a similar reaction if I were in the place of this fish with this male Black Skimmer from Florida.  Thanks for looking!

1/800sec @ f/9, ISO 320, 700mm (500mm f/4 + 1.4x)

What a wonderful shot. Nice closeup of the skimmer with the fish, and excellent timing on catching the reaction. Well done!
