Xena (C)
Hi all. This is Xena, she is a big, bold, beautifull Golden Eagle. The image was taken at The Cotswolds Falconry Centre yesterday. An enjoyable day out with my wife, and a couple of friends. The image is full frame, and shot at f2.8 to render the awkward BG OOF. All C&C's most welcome. Many thanks,
Paul. :wavey:

Canon EOS 7D, Sigma 70-200 f2.8 EX lens. Tripod.

f2.8, 1/160 sec, ISO 100, @179mm.

A fine GE portrait Paul, and particularly like the palette of this one.

Good detail at f2.8 Paul. Like the composition and BG blends very nicely with the subject. :smile:
