A juvenile Bald Eagle, banking into a tight turn while keeping its eye on the water below in hopes of spotting a salmon close to the surface.

Hi Gary,
I think that this one turned out very well. Immature bald eagles have interesting blotches of white in the plumage as in this one. The tail twist shows the function feature of how a tail is used for steering. Pose and comp are good as well. I like this one as presented…Jim
Top notch image Gary. Wonderful dynamic pose banking. Background is superb, and the light in the eye is icing on the cake. Nicely captured.
Great perspective Gary. Love the intense look with a great view of the eye/head. Nice composition and the background is a big plus too. Well done!
A superb image, Gary. Juvenile Bald Eagles are so difficult to make look really good and you pulled it off beautifully. It also helps that you caught an awesome flight pose and you have an interesting background.
Hi Gary
Your photograph really shows the power and beauty of this juvenile Bald Eagle. The derail, coloring and eye contact are very nice.

This is quite a stunning image, Gary. Wonderful pose, and the closeness makes you feel as if your were there. Great job ! Hans
