The Take Off Begins

[Ed Cordes]

This is an image 3 frames (at 8 fps) prior to the last eagle image I posted yesterday as seen here http://www.birdphotographers.net/for...ad.php?t=47175

I am posting it as it shows how the take off developed.

1DMK2 with 500 F4 at ISO 640 f 5.6 and 1/3200. Again a large crop - Really wish I left the 1.4 on the lens!!! :o

Thanks for looking. C&C most welcome.

I'm guilty of the same Ed. Would have been nice.
Great comp nonetheless.

Love the action and sharpness, very unusual pose but works very well.
Good work with exp. Nicely done...

Hi Ed,
Love the pose looks like the eagle is trying to maintain balance. I would crop tighter to show more of the bird and also pull up all of those darks. TFS
