Brendon,
This has it all-beautiful light and wing position and nice composition. I would clone out the black blob in the water under his feet and burn the white spots just above and below tip of bird's left wing,
Gail
Gail makes some very valid point. Just a little work would make an already super image even better. Light is fantastic in this.
Amazing light, fantastic pose and setting. Love the perfect exposure and the fact that there are hardly any shadows. Terrific image Brendon.
I like it as posted. Very nice
Beautiful light, fantastic pose. I like the loose crop (if it's a crop) that includes the surroundings. I'm with Gail on the few spots; otherwise a real beauty.

this is sweet! well done love the light and bank pose

Beautiful light, pose, and habitat. I quite like this as is.
Great pose captured, Brandon, nice light and well framed.
Brendon, fantastic shot. Very good image quality, like the colours and wing position.
I like the overall color of this, the light is fantastic and the eagle is dead on sharp.
Jack

Thanks all for your great comments, much appreciated.
That's a great landing shot. Really killer detail on the underside of the wings. I might crop just a bit more off the bottom (not much), and tone down the brightness of the whites in the neck just a little.
