Photographed this image yesterday at the marina in Poulsbo,Wa. The bg is trees--across the bay so they actually are quite a distance away.

Fantastic in every sense, the unusual (for Eagles) background gives it an artistic look, very pleasing. Those claws look almost out of place in such sweet surroundings :) (Love the pantaloons!)

Well done as above. With the bird coming down I also like the placement of the bird up in the frame.

Great pose, details and the BG adds a lot to it. I guess you used S/H under the wings. It seems you introduced some noise this way. Maybe you could sharpen the underside of the wings a bit less.

Love the flight pose in this image Bonnie and excellent conpostion. Your timiing was perfect !!!! As Fab mentioned the BG gives it a very artistic look.
