    I added some canvas to the original image and then while playing around in Photoshop I decided to change the head position. Just for fun. Let me know if it looks obvious, thanks.
    From my recent trip to Homer Alaska, the eagles were fed lg. Pollock so that the Glacious-winged Gulls couldn't fly off with them!

    Looks fine to me. Nothing obvious. Those were small pollock. A zillion years ago I was catching 35 pound pollock on diamond jigs on a boat at Montauk! That we before I knew what a telephoto lens was....

    Not having an eagle eye, there was no way I was going to catch a changed head position unless it was really obvious, and I was sure it wouldn't be. Just for fun, I decided to try figuring out where you added the extra canvas. The left side seemed like the obvious place. I looked there and everywhere else but couldn't find it. Must not have a canvas eye, either.

    Denise, it looks great and not obvious at all. Btw, the gulls were still trying to fly off with the pollocks sometimes dropping them being chased by others...

    Great work with this, Denise. I would not have guessed that you changed anything.
