    At the end of the Sheffield Mills eagle shoot last year I remember seeing this immature bird peer up above a snow bank. This image is the result.

    Crop, NR on BG, sharpen.

    I am not sure about this one myself (snow bank mainly) and need commentary!

    John:
    I think it is interesting and different, but for me it needs a least some detail in the snow to work.
    Can you pull out even a little more? Nice background.

    Good point Randy. I don't think it's blown but there still may be nothing there. I'll have a look!

    I agree with Randy. As is it looks like it was cropped crooked and it's just white canvas. If you can bring detail out you will have a intriguing shot.

    Really like the background as well as the HA in this case.

    Light, sharpness and HA on the bird look all great.
    I agree with the others on the snow.
