Thanks for looking,

Great pose, BG & excellent detail in large image, Dennis. Seabeck is a superb olace to shoot eagles

Dennis,
Wonderful angle of one of my favorite birds. Perhaps it is my monitor, but there appears to be a halo around it. Good catch.

Excellent shot Dennis, love the detail in the clouds and of course on the Eagle. Great exposure on this.

The large version of this is very nice Dennis. I like the angle and how you framed this.

Perfect position for the light you had - the entire bird id well lit, showing the feather detail very well.

Good job
