    Eagle

    This was another shot from Flight of Wonders at Animal Kingdom. I just love bald eagles!

    Re: Eagle

    I think that is just an excellent shot! Very sharp, nice color and lighting.

    Can you share some of the particulars? Tripod, flash, lens, camera?

    Thanks!!

    Well, this was actually done sans tripod...all of the shots I'll be posting from FL are that way. I mainly carried around my camera, with my bag and lenses strapped to my daughter's stroller...lol.
    I use a Canon Rebel XT (digital) and this was with my Quantaray 75-300 lens.

    Re: Eagle

    Alison, thank you! I always feel a little like I'm cheating when I take animal shots at the zoo...hehe. They're so well-posed for me already...

    Roger, can you imagine how ugly the bird would be if it were really bald!???! Hehe...
    And thank you so much.

    I feel like I am cheating too. However, it is a very good image, and you don't have to tell anyone where you shot it . The detail is awesome and the composition classic. Nice!
