Good shot! The moment baby trout leap from the water to catch flies buzzing overhead | Mail Online

Fantastic images, but this:

He meticulously trained the young fish - only three or four inches long - to leap from the tank using bait dangled above them

and this:

He said he wanted to be able to illustrate an event happening every day on Britain’s rivers, ponds and streams but which no one could ever see in such detail.

are a bit at odds to me.

Faked...

Yeah, see where your coming from but maybe it's one of those situations where your never going to get the shot without some staging. Even Attenborough's documentaries have to got it sometimes like the polar bear birth.

No but photoshop does.

Spoils it somehow when you know how its all been faked.

You mean to say, there is something fishy going on?

The actual pictures of the fish jumping are pretty awesome and very well taken. However when he ahs merged them with the background I personally dont think he has done a very good job.

Look at the size of the insects compared to the trout in some of the pics (the damsel for instance) that is one tiny damsel fly lol.

Bit cheesy and fake looking for my tastes, but I cant do better.
