Bald Eagle

[Doug Brown]

I just upgraded my Mac to Snow Leopard and thought I'd do a little hard disk housekeeping. I've deleted well over 1000 images but came across some previously unprocessed images that I liked. Here's a Bald Eagle from the winter of 2008.



Canon 1D Mark III, 500mm + 1.4x, f/8, 1/2500, ISO 400, no flash, tripod

Doug,

Must've been a spectacular sight, and to capture it so well a very rare treat indeed. I'm glad you dug this one up to share. Eye is pin sharp. Do you remember the time of day?

A little too far back in the memory bank Erich.

Hi Doug, you couldnt have asked for a better angle. Full wingspread showing great detail from the underwings, and overall, nice and sharp. Great capture.

That's OK. I just asked cuz it looks like dawn or dusk.

The EXIF data should be able to refresh your memory:)

Sweet light, pose, and underwing detail. I might sharpen the head a tad more, but I would love to have this one in my files.

I can see why this one did not go to computer heaven.
I like the detail below the wings and the eye looks great.
Super comp and angle.
You used a tripod and remembered it, must have been some occasion?:D
