Artist's Comments

Update on 22.11.2008: As with the Horse Eye, I have started editing from scratch and redid this one. I increased quality, saturation and light.

A bald eagle flying over the beautiful scenery of Styria in Austria. I'm always asked how I could take photos of such a georgeous animal like this one. It was at a show, were they were flying. Still hard enough ;)


_________

Wow, the clarity is amazing! It has such an awesome expression on its face, too :)
I really have no idea what you could have changed... maybe you blurred the background a bit more? I don't know...

with the background you are on the right way, but it's not just that it's blurred.
Pay attention to the wings... :P

You blurred the tips of the wings?

Great capture!

The more massive an object is, the more gravity it contains, which explains why it is harder to get ketchup out of the bigger glass ketchup bottles. More importantly it is also why a big screen tv collects more dust than a hoover.

i agree with you, one of your best captures! and a great capture it is.

right.. it's not just, that they are flying, they are flying very fast :D


So, just when your camera focused the bird, it's another 20m away and the clarity is gone! It takes a lot of luck, but I can be quite proud about this campture.

Thanks for all the other great comments, too!

sorry, but no :P
This wouldn't make any sense, I think!

Maybe you will find it, if you look at the top of the wings. If you don't thats one big complement for my Photoshop-Skills :toocool:
