Date Uploaded: May 8, 2008

 At the Naturfototage near Munich.

They had a 500 mm Canon L lens there which one could test - impressing.

Not much choice for me on how to compose the image, the lens was on a tripod, and the the eagle on some contraption in front of it. The only thing I had to/could do was press the shutter.

Cropped, resize, curves, USM.
