Arty farty eagle
Just returned from Norway and must admit.....this has been one of my most amazing trips ever. Great eagles, perfect company and great weather conditions. Tried to shoot backlit most of the times and it worked out well.

Nikon D3s and Nikon 200-400 iso 200 1/4000 sec. -4EV f/4 full frame.
No flash :biggrin:

Like it when I first saw it elsewhere Edwin, beautiful, however, would also agree, a tad higher in frame would be spot on. Excellent Edwin :toast: :toast: :toast:

Great to see Baz back on here too, be superb to have the 'chuckle brothers' back here posting, hey DC?

Off to bag some three weeks of bears Edwin, so you on my return, all the best.
