    My second Eagle

    Got this one on my vacation East a few weeks ago don't remember if it was in NB or PEI . It was poring rain and he was under a bit of cover from overhead limbs.

    Nice shot, Knight! Love the combination of the dour weather and the "haggard" look and slumped posture! A great departure from the stereotypical "regal" pose.

    Your signature says, "Feel free to help" so I hope you don't mind that I cropped your image the way I would if it were my own. I like it better.

    That guy looks like a street fighter. Superb shot with sharpness to spare.

    super shot. Nice job of capturing the foggy feel. Others have noted the problem with the view/sharpness of the eye.

    Woot!! Nice work getting the sticky this time around Knight. And well deserved too. Very nice shot. I prefer the anti-typical poses of these guys. Shows their more devious side in my mind lol.
