It looks like something that would be done in photoshop. I didn't know they could fly and twist like that. Amazing.

Another very different angle of flight in this. Good light, detail and exposure in this. Well captured.

Wicked pose David, and the blue sky in URC ads alot to the comp. Cool!

Very nice timing.. I've seen canada geese do this all the time, but
this is the 1st eagle shot I've seen showing this action. Cool!
Might be just a tad tight, but great light and sky.

Interesting perspective! I like the blue sky background. Excellent light and details. Exposure is spot on.

Super pose, there is a bit of motion blur or softness fue to focus or sharpening but very good otherwise :)

Another impressive flightshot from your hands. I do agree with the sharpening suggestion...but I have to say this pose is stunning!
