Great shot Lisa! The color of the water is beautiful, the expression on the otter's face fabulous and the air bubbles add the perfect finishing touch! Can you provide details on the camera settings you used to capture this action?

Lisa- If these pictures are'nt going into magazines that would be a shame. You have brought the animal world to us with such awesome talent and creativity. This is so well captured. The colors, the clarity, the lighting, the details,The way you captured the playfulness of the otter, all professional grade. Please keep them comming. Have a wonderful day, take care my friend

Lisa I LOVE all your animmmal photos but I have to say this is one of MY favorite animals. I could sit and watch them forever. Fantastic capture, love his smile ehehehee. Someone hit a river otter here where I live he was in town and my husband called the game warden and let him tag it. He had it stuffed and was a record size otter. I never even knew there was otters in our river. Going in my Fav's!!!

So cute..and looks like he is sticking his tongue out at you Lisa! LOL Great capture; the color of the water and the bubbles make me feel as if I am right there. My hubby and son went fishing tonight at a small river near the mouth of the ocean, and they saw an otter. Justin said he climbed up on the pier to eat a fish.

TWhat a wonderful capture of this sweet creature, Lisa! Didn't know otters were the zip-around type till other bp'rs mentioned it, so it's all the more impressive that you got Mr. Personality's tongue sticking out as he passed by you. Great job!
