Professional photographer Anthony Bucci snapped a photo in Blackfish Sound last fall season of a bald eagle swooping down on a herring ball, capturing multiple herring.
Bucci, who lives nearby on the north end of Vancouver Island and has his own wildlife touring business, submitted the photo to CAPA Canada (Canadian Association for Photographic Art), which has roughly 90 photo clubs across Canada and close to 1500 individual members, where it was recently selected with 14 other images that scored high in the Nature/Wildlife contest to represent Canada in an upcoming Four Nations contest.
ѻýWith each image being scored by a certified CAPA judge that critique everything, Iѻým honoured to be part of this selection out of thousands of images submitted,ѻý said Bucci when asked to comment. ѻýThis opportunity is pretty hard to achieve and Iѻým very excited to be selected among some of the best photos representing Canada.
ѻýIѻým very grateful for this accomplishment and the hard work that Iѻýve put into my images for the last 11 years of wildlife photography.ѻý
