I like these ones. What do you think. Do the two shots work well together?

WW,
How far the eel when you took the photos?

For what it's worth I really love these shots - they are not only expertly done but also impart an anthropomorphic identity or character to these little chaps.

They remind me also of that Dean martin song about digital capture:

    When an eel rushes out,
    Bumps your heel with its snout,
    It's a moiré.


Sorry!

Which reminds me of the Photographers' Lament in Disney's Cinderella (I think, or was it Sleeping Beauty?)

"Some Day My Prints Will Come."

Sadly that is all too often the case, Gary.

G'day W,
