WOW!!!! what an image! I love raptors and this one is a beauty!
Amazing photo rich in details, specially on the whites that can be tricky to get sometimes. This is an outstanding portrait shot and there nothing I can say looks wrong. It is SUPERB!

Gorgeous bird and image, incredible amount of detail (the spokes of pigmented material in the eye, for example).
I know there is a general trend to position the main element of a photo far from center, but personally I think cropping a bit from the right side would improve the composition. I'm probably in the minority on this, though.

This indeed looks like an Haliaeetus!
Love the proud pose, the eye looks like a marble. You must have been very close to come away with a FF of this fantastic bird, good for you amigo!

Beautiful subject, beautifully captured! I love the exposure on the whites, the over-the-shoulder head turn, the detail overall (but especially in the eye). I'm a fan of the composition, as well.

Morkel, stunning portrait of a top avian predator. The details on the white and the dark feathers are impressive, and couple with the BG, you would think this is a studio shot. Loi

Hi Morkel, one lucky fish to get that close to this majestic bird. As far as bird portraits go, I think this is just about as good as it gets. Excellent sharpness and exposure, and the level of fine detail takes this over the top. Well done!

Beautiful bird and exquisite detail. Like the BG too. I could see cropping slightly off the right and maybe pushing your exposure to the right a bit.
