    Robbery - 100 feet above

    In case you don't frequent Nature and Wildlife forum, allow me to share with you this photo:




    Here, one was snatching a prey from the other.

    I am sure it can use a lot of improvement. But time was running out.

    Thank you for your comments, GB1!

    This's my most exciting shot so far.

    Well, since most of you don't want to say anything. I guess I'd do the honor

    It looks like the focus and exposure could be better. The background...not sure what it is...looks like a vague image of some mountain far away? It could be a crop, too, so the image quality is far from perfect. As far as composition goes, I'm not sure about that. But, given the kind of photo it is, perhaps there was not much time to think about it or there wouldn't be any shot at all. The timing though looks OK. Hope there's a next time to take a shot like this...two different kind of eagles fighting for the same prey somewhere in the air? Lucky you. Still, I read that somewhere in Florida this happens quite a lot.

    Who cares about the technical details when you catch a shot like this.
    I suppose if you could get the two to re-create the action in a portrait studio, it would be nice.
    Great, great, great catch.
    Keep Shooting!

    Awesome shot! Just being at the right place at the right time with the right equipment more than makes up for any technical concerns. Makes my shots of whitetail deer seem very tame.
