Hi Tm,

A magnificent portrait of this majestic bird. Sharpness and clarity are perfect and the composition is also great. Often you would prefer to have eye contact with the bird, but this sidelook is definitely impressive and you get a good impression of its determination and stealth view. Best regards Per.

Thanks Michael!

 

Thanks Per!  The reason he looks as such is because a split seconds later .. he pooped. You can look at the folder this image is in to see that shot  :-) - He basically, lighten his load before his flight.  I like this one because of the background uniform color. The fly shot while looks nice got the split blue and light blue (more like white) background of the sky does not look as good . :-)

Tm J - another great eagle shot. I like the uncluttered background. Also like the wood on the left to add another element of interest. I did take this into PS and do a lightening on the eagle feathers to bring up a little more detail. I liked the more detail. Is this in Homer?

Thanks Dave! Some images were taken on highway 4 going South from the Arctic Circle down to Anchorage. The rest mostly around Homer area.
