    An eagle locks on to a fish it has spotted in the Susquehanna river below the Conowingo dam in Maryland.

    A great pose, banking into a dive. Appears sharp and well exposed on my screen. I wouldn't do anything except possibly darken the pupil.

    Liking this a lot Ryan, the pose and downward focus of the eagle on its prey are great. I can also see a version with a tighter crop and a lift to the shadows. TFS

    I really like this and the tight crop works really well. I particularly love the white feathers on the head. Very nicely done!

    I like the banking pose and intense hunters gaze down. Repost works for me. Nice image Ryan.
