Wow.

Love the detail in the bird and the background colour is fantastic.

This is defiantly something for me to aim for with my photography.

[David Salem]

That's it!! I'm booking a trip next year. You sure got a ton of awesome shots in the few days that you were there. This one is a classic BE shot. Perfect fight angle and HA and the dark BG really looks great. Well done Arash..

[gail bisson]

It is the BG colors that sell this shot for me. Makes for a beautiful image,
Gail

[Jim Crosswell]

I like the flight angle, sharpness, exposure, details, composition and BG. Excellent image Arash!

[Marina Scarr]

I just love this image, Arash. The eagle against that BG just makes this image shine.

[Grace Scalzo]

There are lots of eagle images out there, but the polish that you give to your images in the post processing sets them apart. I've looked at this one a couple times today...really superb.

[christopher galeski]

its all been said,very nice image,the BG is something else.

[Satish Ranadive]

Great composition. Love it.

The eagle really pops against that slate blue BG!

Hi Arash, Everybody loves the shot including me... It has a 3D 'look' to it that is pretty stunning. However, nobody's mentioned the halo behind the wing, maybe they understand where it comes from but I don't... Can you enlighten me..? best regards DON

[Girish Prahalad]

it's from natural light. it happens when BG is darker than wing feathers.




thanks

Really pretty image of our national bird. Love the background colors. Exposure is spot on. Great post processing.

Did you have a specific question Ashleigh? otherwise it's just my standard processing and noise reduction for high ISO...

Best,

Arash

Hi, no I was looking at the amazing feather detail and wondering what you use to do that?

I saw someone say NIK Detail Extractor and wondering if you use that?

Thanks!

Hi Ashleigh,

no, I don't use these things. Key to having a high quality image really comes down to one thing and that is getting a sharp and correctly exposed RAW file in the camera :)
