This is one from a trip to the Isle of Mull last year. Captured early morning from a boat on a sea loch...I had just removed my 1.4 as 2 eagles were getting closer to a whole mackerel which had been thrown over for bait, I saw how far the fish was from the boat, so I took a chance and removed it. I did manage a few shots. This one was coming in from further away, then the other eagle flew directly towards it, I managed to capture this pose at that time. Now I was wishing I hadn't removed my 1.4, as the birds weren't as near as I would like them to have been, but I liked the pose...and a that talon
