Eagle Head
iso 100, f6.7, 500mm plus 1.7 telextender, 250th sec. D-300

this is a minimally post processed enlargement of a full frame.
please check out the enclosed unprocessed full frame.

here is the unprocessed whole frame from the D-300. The enlargement is a little soft in the feathers but I am happy with the quality considering the magnification.

Yeah, that's a nice close up view of that eagle. Too bad that wasn't the full frame version.

Lovely capture of this regal bird. There appears to be a halo above it's head in the cropped version.

I agree about the halo but this is a fine image. :toast:
