Love this shot, the light on the water, the angler just about to net the fish. Spot on.

Great shot.
The one thing that would improve it for me would be to have captured the top of the rod, but that's being picky.

I did think that as well at the time of taking.
The rod was so long that if I got it all in, the fisherman would have been tiny in the frame and nothing but featureless river beyond

That did cross my mind.
Perfect as is then.
