See what I mean? Got some of that eagle glare now...

But it looks fake as shit. One thing you should never do when taking wildlife photography is to tweak the images to make them look like you think they should look. I've never seen an eagle with glowing eyes. |
As always in these things, one exaggerates to make one's point. Somewhere in between, no doubt. But look at this; //www.fredmiranda.com/forum/message.php?Action=downloadfile&FileID=70276
And I've seen the like with my own eyes. The point is, the strongest eagle shots always seem to show some of that yellow color in the eyes.
It's there, he just has to tweak it out a little. How much, is the question.
