Congrats on a first. You've got him in a unique environment and background compared to most eagle shots.

Thank you guys, you are my heroes!! Thanks for the kind words! I just started to do some wild life and I knew I would wanted a longer lense! My only telephoto is my 200 F2 Vr with the 3 tc!! But the tc-20eII is always stuck on it since I have a Full Frame (D810)

I might buy a 600 f4 Vr but I might wait to see if they will release the Fluorite version! I saw on nikon rumors that the 600mm is suppose to be the next one to be updated. It might be true the 600mm F4 vr came in 2007

Thank you David and Beebalm !

So do you like more the second version with the rocks remove in the right top corner ? It puts more the attention on the subject imo ?

Critics and comments are welcome !

If you can, I think cloning out the huge rock under it's wing and keeping the two tiny rock may look very nice

IMO, the big rock distracts from his feathers!
Try it and show us if you can
