Hi Cliff
I gotta believe that is the sadest expression I have ever seen on an eagle in that second shot. Boy were you getting the stare down on that first shot! Dinner looks good......................Ha
Nice shots
Nice shots Cliff. These could use a slight tweak in levels to bring out some more detail/contrast. #2 is great! I'd give it a touch of NR, a tweak on levels, and put it up on my wall.
When I first saw 2 I thought it had to be the saddest eagle ever. Then reading the comments I had to laugh at all the others with the same thought. Great job. Poor eagle.
#2 is a great shot because it's unusual and emotional. If your gut feeling was that this was a good one -- do more!! Go for emotion in addition to the tradition of sharp/comp/etc. Cool!
