Another Eagle

[Joe Ford]

Close fly-by

Canon 1DmkIII
EF 500 f4
1/1000 f5.6
ISO 400

Shot on bean bag from car window

In processing, I dropped the exposure a tad, increased contrast, and added a little vibrance during conversion. I cropped a bit from the top and left, sharpened, and resized for posting.


C&C welcomed
Thanks for looking

i like the mood here. the light adds to the drama of the moment. i think the processing was spot on.

[Graham Smith.]

Very nice. Exposure looks great, and I really like the lighting. I'm not sure about the horizon line - perhaps I'd try removing it all together.

[Bill McCrystyn]

Great image Joe. Looks like a painting with that light and background. Works for me. Should sell well. From the car you say? Amazing. Good job.

Joe:

The lighting effect is very nice, very flattering to your subject. I might have left just the tiny bit more on the left, but of course it is very nice as is.

Very sharp with excellent detail in the dark feathers

Great and powerfull image, I love the pose, the light, the exposure control and the BG, I might like it better with more room all arround, but as presented it is a striking shot! Congratualitons!

[Axel Hildebrandt]

Pose and details are great. I find it too tight in the frame and some of the whites on the head look overexposed. It has a yellow cast on my monitor.

What location is this?

:D

[Joe Ford]

Phil,

This was shot in Northern Utah.

[Mike Lentz]

Nice pose and I like how low the Eagle is in the frame! It seems to be a bit yellowish however, maybe some WB adjustment. Farmington Bay has been producing some nice images.

I like the eye contact and pose of this Eagle. Has a different feel form most Eagle shots I see. I like the horizon at the bottom too. Great job.
