African fish eagle

[Sanjeev Aurangabadkar]

I saw a good number of fish eagles during my just concluded trip to Chobe and Okavango delta. These majestic raptors did not disappoint. Hope you like it. This was from a boat at the Chobe river. One of my fave images of the trip.

Hi Sanjeev, oh you lucky fellow, you did well to get so close, they can be skittish, but guess with all the traffic in Chobe they have become accustom to vehicles.

Nicely processed from what I can see on the laptop, whites & blacks look spot on, I can see why you like it so much, well done.

Great looking eagle, and you processed it beautifully. Love the colours and light. Cool to see it in water like that. I do wish the little wavelet was behind the legs though, and I could see a version with more room above. Still a fantastic image, I'd be really happy with that too.
