It's a wonderful capture with perfect timing to catch his landing, beautiful composition as presented however the head is a bit over exposed and focus over the subject is soft. Birds , especially in motion are a challenge.

A well timed still motion capture!
Perfect timing!
An interesting initial impact.
Diffused focusing but at least an eye is visible.
Nicely framed against a clear blue sky.

Excellent details.
Nice perspective & narrow DOF.

Thanks for sharing...

Thank you very much. Yes, you are correct the focusing is diffused somewhat do to cropping.

Wow! I can't believe that you got to see an eagle and get a chance to photograph it. You have captured it in what looks to be a landing on this tropical looking tree. I like the shadows in the wings and the angle that you shot this in. It is composed nicely with the wings spread and the blue sky to show him off in. Nice work.

Your welcome

A well cropped image with very good colors. Your timing was excellent to catch this flapping action. The image is a little lacking in detail which I assume is due to the degree of enlargement.
