Such A Stern Expression
Bald Eagle on the beach23 total reviews
Comment from Sean T Phelan
'Intimidation' is the purpose of the raptor's expression,my friend!
It's an evolutionary adaptation that goes back many millions of years-right to this bird's distant Dinosaurian ancestors!
That's a fine looking picture and I'm enjoying it very much!

Thank you so much my friend! They are intimidating, but I have learned also that they do yield to humans . Either way they fascinate me !

A beautiful capture of this bald eagle! Pat, you have really captured a beautiful scene with the young eagle on the edge of the water. I see beautiful textures, fine details, and gorgeous colors. His expression is indeed stern and your capture is amazing! Thank you for sharing.

You have pictured this beautiful Eagle so well, and especially the sharp shiny eye is well captured. Also I like the way the bird is turning its head, and mostly because that you got such a good look at its majestic profile. The Eagle is also standing out really well from the slightly softened background.
Your focus is spot on and sharp showing such clear and well defined details in the feathers of the bird, and the exposure is perfect.
I also like the way you have cropped the photo and the placement of the bird off to the right. I think this is a truly lovely and well taken photo Pat, and with an excellent DOF.

you know to me the eagles always have "im mad at you " look. lol. nice capture. the clarity is great. the angle of the shot of this eagle giving you the evil eye is great. the capture of the light is great. the presentation is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. good eye and great job overall.

Comment from FBI GUY
This was an outstanding opportunity to capture Alaska at it best. What a magnificent specimen. I can see why you could be a bit intimidated. That is one stern look. With that ability to swivel his neck, he doesn't miss much. His position in the frame and the lighting give us great detail and a wonderful POV. This could be on the cover of an Alaskan Outdoors magazine.

Pat,
A beautiful picture of the Bald Eagle it's eye fixed on you with what to me looks like ill intent!!!The light glowing in it's golden eye while highlighting it's, white head & tail, yellow hooked beak & dark brown plumage on it's wings & back. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
