seems like you guys really don't stop posting in the weekend as some of the other gallery's do, I had so much great photo's to look through today!
This is another one from the workshop with Pete, but this time a Golden Eagle. Altough Golden Eagles usually have brown eyes this one has golden/greenish eyes, which are absolutely wonderfull, I just had to take a portrait shot! You can still see a little blood on his beak from his feeding frenzy earlier on the day.
Thank you all for looking and all comments welcome of course!
Cheers!
Tech: Sony a700, 300mm f2.8 @iso800 & 1/250 + Ps work of curves, contrast and sat. I also modified the bg colour a little to make the head stand out better.
I love the detail - sepecially in the eye and face, and the background colour looks good. There does seem to be a fairly distinct halo around the bird (maybe from fiddling with the background) that detracts slightly, but overall a lovely portrait!
