Pat,
A beautiful profile portrait of America's Majestic Emblem Bird the Bald Eagle (Who is not bald at all!) on the Klutina River hoping for Salmon. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Comment from ArtistCharles
Another beautiful shot of an eagle, not in a tree or flying. It is nice seeing them in a more natural shot, hunting, eating or something else. Not that the others aren't natural, they are just normal. Beautiful focus on the eye and beak. Nice detail and color throughout. Well seen and shot.

Alaska is one of a few places that you can see eagles in the wild. This particular eagle is in perfect focus and stands out against the water of the Klutina River. It seems he is taking a break from his fishing to just take in the world. Exceptional photo.

You are very welcome. Love the eagle, and it was a pleasure to review.

Comment from btowngirl
What a classic bird! You are so lucky to live where you often see them. The way you cropped works well to place the bird looking into the picture, his white head standing out against the dark water. Good balance.

Thank you very much Donna ! The seagulls do everything they can to chase the Eagles off!

Comment from Trajan
That is a beautiful shot of a gorgeous and majestic bird. Look at the detail in the breast and head feathers. I can even see the crevices in the beak.
Nicely captured with solid lighting and focus.
Nice thirds and a solid composition.
Yup, all around great shot as we have come to expect from a fabulous photographer such as yourself!
