Portrait of an Eagle.

Can't believe the clarity you are getting in your shots John. You are doing an excellent job with your H5 and have really nailed these two. Great day eh? Enjoyed the sun also but not much to show for it.

I wanted to reach out and stroke their feathers ( and,perhaps, lose a finger!) Thank you for sharing. Just gorgeous!

What is the grey shadow on the left side of the eagle's profile?
I can't make out if it's a shadow or whatever.

That got my attention also. It could be a shadow from the branch maybe.

 

[Hutchman]

It is the shadow of the twig/branch above the eagle's head. It was 2:00PM in the afternoon and the sun was behind me and fairly high.
Thanks for your comments.

I agree, John. For sure one of your best shots, under any aspects.

And I have to say that I feel a little invy for that.....but it's just a positive feeling.

Take the scenic route! Life is too short to do otherwise.

Do you know them by name? Do they know you by the camera?
Thanks for sharing....

If you are always telling the truth, you don't have to remember what you said.

As expected, a sharp and well-framed picture. But, I'm beginning to suspect that you have a pet eagle that goes out on location with you and
takes directions about assuming these poses.
