This is really a neat shot of this magnificent bird. I like the way you caught him. I really do like it. This is not an easy shot but you pulled it off. Good job and good luck in the contest!

This is an amazing shot. It must take a lot of patience to be able to wait for just the right moment to be able to capture this pose. The face looks like a painting and is very intense!

I guess he saw some pray and goes after it. The pose and especial the intensive look at something below indicates this. The action is interesting. The photo is focused. The colors are excellently natural. The blue sky emphasises the bird and the sky well.

A great shot of this majestic bird. Your stop action captures him in such an interesting position, just taking off from the branch. Your white balance and light management is great. The soft cloudy blue sky makes for the perfect background to show the eagle off on. Really beautiful work, Grace.

Eagles are such a beautiful bird. You were at the right place at the right time. The wings are gorgeous. If it were me, I would lighten it up a bit. It looks kind of dark.The focus and composition are excellent.

Wow! Looks like some one is in a attack mode. Great shot. He is a mean looking dude. Perfect framing, Good color. Super sharp image. The trees and soft clouds against the blue sky gives you depth. This would make a great GOD BLESS THE USA T Shirt. Try It. Also have a 11x14 print framed and mounted.

    Thank you very much for the extra star on this one, and your nice comments! You have a lot of good ideas too :) Maybe if I clone out some of the branches it would make a better image for a T-shirt!

Good camera techniques and nice stop action shot of the Eagle landing. Since the eye is so sharp just draws us right into your photography. Very well photographed, with beautiful natural light, sharp focus revealing outstanding details and clarity in your image. Nice how your captured him with wings outstretched and wonderful expression. Such a realistic shot. Outstanding work and thanks for sharing. Love this!
