After the Meal

Another image of the Seabeck Eagle. This time rinsing off after eating its catch. Unfortunately the angle of shooting left some oof oysters in the foreground.

I like the placement in the frame as he's looking back.

nice depiction of habitat, good exposure. I am OK with the BG but wish the HA was better,

here is a repost with optimized sharpening

[gail bisson]

I think that this one is my favorite of the series.
Love the head turn and the colors. Great "in the water" position. Love your low POV
Arash's repost is good-I can see the difference especially around the eye.
FG oysters don't bother me,

Sweet image and the repost is stunning. Great low angle and look back pose.

[Bonnie Block]

Arash, thanks for doing the repost. I can certainly see the difference.

Nice close up of this handsome eagle. Exposure looks good as dose the comp. The exra sharpening looks great. Well done

[Karl Egressy]

Bonnie, you have an excellent and enjoyable series going on. I have to admit that the repost by Arash looks better though.

[Richard Unsworth]

Repost is amazing, but op was also; great setting.
Can always say what if I guess, but this is a well seen and executed shot

Love the head turn,colors,details,composition and 3D effect due to BG and FG.
