Excellent action shot of this eagle.
Go on admit it, it was stuffed and you cloned out the strings holding it up :-)
The image is tack sharp and his expression is marvellous, full of intent and concentration.

I have seen this scene so often on tv on my nature programs which I watch avidly, and how amazing is it when they tear a smaller bird apart for their babies in the nests. However, it makes one aware of the brutality of nature, as are humans.

a wonderful capture of the most famous American eagles; we have no eagles in our area;
excellent sharp details; I would only leave more space at the right and bottom;

Hi Pat. Yes, I can tell by the placement of wings and claws, that swooping for fish is in the offing. Great presentation. Thank you for sharing

Comment from Charlie Newman


Wonderfully done stop action capture of this diving eagle. I can see the intensity and the laser focus of its look locked onto its prey. Focus is sharp and details throughout the bird are clear.

There is no way I could pass this by and not give it a six star rating! The shot is phenomenal Pat! Lucky you to have this as an almost every day sight. I rarely see Bald Eagles but when I do I am overjoyed! Lovely lighting and focus make this shot really stand out! Super Job! :o) Nancy

Beautiful shot. The intensity in the eagle's eye is astounding. Very nice cropping making the eagle the only thing you see. Love the clarity of the picture. Reasons for my five star vote.

It seems that the Eagle has seen prey. He is flying down. Tail and legs are already in position to land on the water. I guess he got some fish.
This is a good stop-in-action shot. The details of body and plumage of the bird are refined. The colors are realistic. The natural light emphasizes the bird well. The Eagle is well placed into the frame. The composition is balanced.
