 My first time scoring in the top ten, thanks for the Votes!!!

I didn't have to do really much at all to this shot, it is just "one of those" every now and then you pull the shots of your camera and find that you caught a really good one, I was very pleased to see this one as Eagles are awesome :)

But the book has nothing to do with an actual eagle - you do know that, right? :-) It is, however, a very nice picture of an eagle.

Excellent detail and expression. Terrific light and focus. One of my top picks.

Beautifully clear and sharp. The background blur gives no clue if it is captive or wild.
