About This Image

The tide was out and the Eagles and Heron were coming in for lunch. I used three masks on this series. 1 on the Eagle, 1 on the overall background and the last one on the bright white reflection of the sun off the water.
Thank you for stopping by.

P.S. There is no more room on the left side of the frame. I was tracking the Eagle.

Hi Peter, nice descending flight poses on the eagle and good control of the whites on the eagle. In the last two images, I’m wondering if the partial heron on the right could be taken out and if there is more room for the clipped eagle. A nice series showing the habitat as well.

Hi Allen

Thank you for the comments. Unfortunately, DXO PhotoLab 9 isn’t the best tool for removing objects from a photograph and the Eagle on the right side of the frame is clipped by the full frame. So here is the last frame of this series. Think of it as a series of frames in a film strip, as opposed to single photographs.

A nice series of the incoming eagle and the sudden departure of the heron, Peter.

Hi Dennis

Peter, great series of photos! I especially like the framing and the wing position of the first image. I have been enjoying all your great work.

Hi Timothy
