    Bald Eagle on a Evening Perch, Light was very low in the Sky but gave a almost Tin Type cast to the bird!

    I like the light, details and BG. When you do S/H you should choose the bird and perch only to avoid halos.

    Nice portrait, good light and wing detail. Axel makes an excellent point. In addition to using S/H selectively I would strongly suggest a little USM selectively applied to the beak and eye only, this would really make the image even better!!

    Very royal pose, it could be made better with the proper post-processing.
