    Bald Eagle

    Kachemak Bay, AK

    D4, 600, ISO 800, f11, 1/1000

    I was happen to get this low angle, tail raised, bloody faced, screaming eagle while he mantled his prey.

    It is a very powerful and beautiful image, Alan. Nice low shooting angle, perfect exposure. The stare and open beak tells the story.

    Riveting image, Alan. Love that light and the dappled blue & white BG. Mantling, calling pose, blood and prey through this one way over the top.

    Excuse the pun, but this is just killer.
    The vicious look is awesome and great IQ.

    Thanks for the warnings. It's life in the wild. Perfect exposure, the low angle brings us the viewer to be right there. Well done. Loi
