Taken this morning, a bit warmer weather for Eagles in Oregon than the ones in Alaska!

Hi Dan,
Good eye level view.
Good incoming flight path as well.
I see a bit of a magenta cast ( often get this on BE on cloudy days!)
Nice and sharp- whites a bit hot on crown but not a deal breaker.
Well done,
Gail

Wow, looks like one of the Ridgefield pair. Great shot of him close to the ground. Sharp and the exposure looks good to me.

Excellent incoming flight pose captured.I like the way eagle pops up on environment.

Regards,
Satish.

good flight pose,sharp with good detail.thanks.

I likie this low level capture Dan showing the eagle plus environment. I also notet the magenta cast on my monitor.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Cast is an easy fix, and I also feel the image could use some CCW rotation. Perfect exposure, good details and pose. The look of concentration is awesome.

Hi Dan, love the angled flying pose, and nicely separated from the BG. Good detail on the head and bill, and agree some CCW is needed.

[Karl Egressy]

Nice low passing angle shot with excellent terrestial background. I also think that the bird can use a little colour cast removal.

[Shawn Zierman]

Very cool angle of view, and with the grassy fg/bg, it's quite unique.
Agree with the ideas offered for image improvement.
Pretty sweet image sir.
