Great detail in both eagles, good sharpness. Also good stopping of the action, well composed. TFS.

A fine action catch, David, with the eyes of both birds showing clearly. The details are great and the birds are well positioned in the frame.

Excellent! everything is spot on. RE: WC topic: If the young one is in training, is this conflict? BUT, perhaps they are not in training. Whatever, this is one heck of an outstanding photo. I think, one of your best, and you have posted many, many of outstanding images. Well done.

Excellent eagle capture, David! This one clearly shows the conflict and the details are great, especially in the large version. The only critique I have is that I think it would be even more dramatic if you bumped up the contrast a bit. That would make it appear a little more 3D. Your highlights are protected pretty well so I think you have room for the contrast.

Great action shot David. They really look so strong and ferocious. I am glad it is only a training exercise.
