Head on

Eagle leaving snag near nest and headed straight at me. Wish I had bare lens at that point as I have others images with clipped wings as he got too close.
Thanks for looking, comments and critiques appreciated.

I like the fierce look on its face. I am not sure why the feet are so much darker than the yellow on the face but the effect bothers me. Perhaps a little selective lightening of the feet would help.

Thanks for the comments Art. Feet were pretty shadowed here I recall with those big wings. I opened up the shadows on the feet in nx and added a slight cooling filter, I think it helps.
Thanks again.

Todd, pretty sharp for such a slow ss ( 1/100 ) A different perspective from the norm, and love the look on his face. Well captured.

Thanks Stuart, my bad. Should read 1/1000, I edited original post. Thanks for the comments.
