Fish Eagle over the Chobe R.

[Marc Mol]

An African Fish Eagle overlooking the Chobe River floodplain on sunset.
Kept it horizontal, to show more of the sky.
D300 70-200VR 1/180s f/2.8 ISO1600@200mm. Some branches on LHS removed and NR on BG.

C & C most welcome

Cheers

I quite like it as presented. Nice sky for sure. maybe the eagle is a little close to the centerline? Tough to crop from below or above since the sky is so appealing in both directions.
The colors do rock!

Wondeful shot. The colors of the BG are fantastic. I like the composition. Maybe a little crop at the top would help but I like it as it is.

The silhouette works well Marc - just enough light to distinquish its a FE. Comp works well, and I like the space. The soft two tone BG puts this over the top. Well captured.

Totally works for me ! Colors are wonderful and I like that there is still some detail in the birs and not a complete sihouette.

Hoping to get there some day !

Ah! This is so lovely, the light really makes this for me!

Fantastic bicolored Bg and silouette. I would prefer the eagle+perch placed a bit more towards the upper left corner. Very well seen Marc

Really like the contrast in the two colors of the background and the open feel of the majority of the canvas...nice job on composition
