    Bald Eagle in flight

    Hey guys

    Im not a bird photographer by any means lol Some how managed to get this guy in flight today while at the zoo. I don't know if it's good or bad, as im not all up on bird photography.

    He flew right in front of me behind the fence, I had AI servo on and I think that helped big time. His tail was a tad bit cut off in the original, so nothing I could do there unfortunately.
    what do you think of this guy?

    Yep! He was at the zoo.

    I used my 85mm f/1.8 for this shot, It's a super sharp little non L lens.

    Well if you not a bird photographer so you should try your hands on it as the photo you had share is one the most gentle eagle photograph i had ever seen very very clear and most attractive.

    Great Flight Shot, Though It's Obvious It's Caged.
