    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 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.

    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.

    Beautiful light, pose, and habitat. I quite like this as is.

    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.

    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.
