Very impressive! :eek:

Those yellow parts stand out so well and I think the eagle fills the frame very nicely too.

What a sight to see let alone photograph. :toast: :toast: :toast:

WOW... fantastic.... only minor nit is I would like a touch more room on the right where the eagle is looking but for web presentation the framing is fine....

Fantastic capture John. Also a very nice species and very photogenic to have bagged. It looks a tad oversharp on my TFT but no probs otherwise.

Very nice image. It does look a bit oversharpened but still a great capture!

FAntastic John. An Eagle I've never seen or heard of for that matter!!! My first impressions were that it was very sharp, and not particularly oversharpened, but I don't use the best monitors around :wink:

Fantastic :toast: :toast:
