Eagle

Photographed this eagle today --we surprised each other, as I came up over a bank.
The small highlights showing at the back of the wing are on the original raw file as well.

Great wing position, details and BG. I would give it a bit more space at the top. Too bad the sun was not behind you.

Bonnie, what a wondeful photograph you got here. It's very satisfying when you successfully get a surprise encounter, ain't it!

[Steve Maxson]

A beautiful, sharp image, Bonnie. Very nice light on the bird and the dark blue background is striking.

[Dave Phillips]

sweet Bonnie...the eagle flies here on the 20th :D

[Keith Bauer]

Beautiful image. Love the light on the Eagle and the soft muted blue background. Seems to compliment the Eagle very well. The wing position is also great. Nice capture

[Philip Lombard]

Bonnie excellent shot, you controlled the whites well, nice BG.

[Linda Robbins]

Lovely flight pose captured and pretty blue bg. You controlled the whites well with the less than ideal light angle.

wonderful flight shot of a beautiful eagle., well done Bonnie!
