Great wingspread on this one, Peter. Detail looks excellent and I like the background. I could see going to a 5x4 aspect ratio by bringing in the right side which would help get the bird out of the center of the frame. I think that would still leave plenty of environment.

Great shot.

Nice and sharp and I would go with Dennis’s recommendation for the crop. Well done…Jim

Really beautiful shot, super-sharp bird and I like the two-layered background. I agree about cropping off a bit of the right side to move the bird out of the middle more.

Wow, great! Perfect full wingspan. Detail is good, and I love the environment. Dennis’s suggestion for the crop to off-center the eagle is a good one.
Really cool catch - good work!

Great flight image, Peter. Nice to get an eye level look at a bird in flight and the detail is great. I like that there is the included environment.

Great job on the repost, Peter.

Nice re-post!

HI Allen, Demmis & Sandy
Thank you for your kinds words.
