Title: FLORIDA BALD EAGLES
Post by: PORSCHE917 on April 14, 2009, 08:10:27 pm

Friends:

Please find attached four images of bald eagles I made here in South Florida last week.  Little post processing has been done; and all of the images were made with a Canon 500/f4.0 EF L IS USM with Canon 1.4 Mk II TC mounted on a Canon 1D Mk III camera.  Your comments and criticism would be appreciated.

I really like the simplicity of the second one - a perfect shot! Congratulations.

Dear Bill and Les:

Thank you very much for your comments.  I enjoy making images of raptors, especially bald eagles.  One of the many areas in which I think I can improve is better managing shutter speed, in that bald eagles are deceptively fast creatures; and their gracefulness with their tremendous speed is sometimes hard to gauge in order to "freeze" action.

Best regards,

Roman
