He just let me hang with him for about 20 minutes. The late afternoon sun had dipped behind a cloud and I'm thinkin "oh great, by the time it comes back out he'll be gone", but he hung around and the sun came back out in time for me to fire off about 50 shots before a ranger came by and scared him off.

Way too much cropping. You just need to get closer.
Taken with 100-400 and no cropping:
Great shot. Wish I could have gotten that close. Unfortunately it was not an option in this situation. We were seperated by water and silly me forgot to bring a boat. Maybe next time. Also, the 80-400 can't go all the way to 400 without getting soft nor does it take a TC very well. in essence, it's a 350mm.

What are you dude?? Half eagle?? Gotta know the story how you got so close. C'mon, you gotst ta give it up.... that's insanely close.
I think that is one heck of good crop Mick, I do think there is some magental showing in your white which also may be muddying up the yellows and the body a bit but heck you got the very most out of that stretch! Now you need a kayak

Best to you on the next outing!

Hey Karl thanks a bunch. I hate cropping so much but you gotta do with what you have sometimes. I do have a kayak but haven't used it for photography yet. Thanks again for the feedback.
