Splash

Homer, AK- just after hitting the water, did he get the fish or not? Another of the Eagle shots. One of thousands, but I am processing slowly.

Great timing and action, like the pose and HA. Splashing water is a bonus

For me, image is too tight in LUC - - would add a bit on top and maybe on the left side

Thanks for sharing

SHARP. Love the underwing detail, the perfect angle to the bird, and the position of the far wing (which can often be a deal-breaker). Definitely too tight left and top... Zoom wider :) WHITEs could go a tad brighter. It was great having you and Lillian along. (Steve was a real trooper as he was not feeling his best....)

FYI, I quickly came to call images like this DAD (dime a dozen...)

Nice and sharp and the splash adds...Would like to see the image a touch lighter and with a bit more room....TFS Steve

Lovely detail in the capture. I agree with the other comments about it being a little tight in the frame.

Very nice - it looks like there's a small halo around parts of the wings - not sure why.

Really like the splash of water behind the eagle.
