Here's one for the eagle lovers. This one was working on getting something out of the ice the entire time I was taking pictures. I couldn't get super close, becuase there was someone else taking pictures of him too. There was another person out, I will call them a weanie, because they were shooting from inside their mini van with what looked like the hubble telescope! I got out of the Jeep and stood in snow up to my knees! Oh well, I suppose if I had their lens, I might have thought about doing the same thing.
Then i'd call u a weanie staying in the vehicle..
Commendable getting out and capturing this fellow.. I love Eagles.
and appreciative of your efforts and foto..
where are you that you see eagles that close? what size lens were you using?
Mississippi River, almost literally! This is at the Marina in Fort Madison. I need to take a nice telephoto lens with me next time and then I won't have to stand in the snow.
