Great take-off wing position, Allen. I also like your composition. My only nit, and it’s nothing you can control, is the way the eyes tend to disappear in the juvenile Bald Eagles.

A very nice capture, Allen. It is amazing how different the juvenile Bald Eagle is from the mature. Lots of changes. If you hadn’t said what it was, I might not have guessed. How fortunate to see one in the take off position like this. Love this shot.

Very nice lift-off image of this eagle, Allen. I like your composition here too.

Nice take-off pose with good wing detail. I like the placement of the bird in the photo.
