Nice capture of the moment – but would have preferred a tighter crop and image is a bit blurry.

This is definitely a nice capture, but the background is too busy for this particular challenge.

This is a very nice shot but the contrast seems too low.

It's really tough to do motion panning like this I'm sure... but the bird is a little bit blurry. If it were in clear focus it would greatly increase the impact of the shot. I would also suggest adding a bit more contrast. Good try! :)

I like the flight capture, just not a lot of contrast

Nice shot. Unfortunately the eagles right wing disappears into the trees and looks funny. If you had of desaturated the background a bit then his wing may have been there still.
