We’ve had several members posting Bald Eagle images over the last week or so. I thought I would add my own. This was taken in 2017.

Specific Feedback Requested

Because our rainy weather has been less than appropriate for shooting, I am reevaluating some of my older images and reprocessing them with the new tools that have become available to us over the last year.

Technical Details

Is this a composite: No
ISO 800, 150-600 at 550 mm, F9, 1000th, Nikon D 500, handheld, around 40% of full frame.

Gorgeous! Love those legs! Terrific sharpness and tones in the feathers. Those talons! Did it catch anything?

Awesome shot, David. Hope you were able to get out today as the weather in the Pacific NW turned out pretty nice.

Awesome indeed! The pose, eyes and talons are wonderful, with great lighting and detail!

HI David
You have a great looking Eagle here. Love the out stretched talons and feather detail.

Hi David,

No nits from me. The details of the whites are best viewed from the large version. Well done…Jim
