A great in-flight photo, Karl; I don't often see kingfishers captured flying, but you have accomplished this here with your wonderful image.

Not easy, photographing Kingfishers in flight. Great light, great background and tack-sharp where needed. Excellent image !!

+1. It's tough getting a good looking shot of a kingfisher in flight and you did a nice job with this one.
