There have been a lot of eagle shots on DPC but this is one of the most dramatic and boldest ones I have seen with the light on the edges of the feathers. Beautiful and looking forward to seeing what equipment you used so I can complete my Christmas list!

Simply outstanding. I really like the setting and composition, but what I like best is the definition of the feathers. GREAT work.

And here all of you bald eagle freeks are again with your thousand of eagles nesting in your backyard WHEN I HAVEN'T SEEN AS MUCH AS AN EAGLY IN MY LIFE! And aparantly there are many of them about where I live! Unfair that is... good score I give you to... But, the next time, why won't you go over to the bald eagle, put a flash right next to it TO EASE UP THE SHADOWS!!!! (don't worry, you're not the first one I'm going after because of a good bald eagle shot =) )
