Hanging Talons

OK, technically it's a terrible picture, but it's the best I could manage with what I had............
To be honest I was almost shaking at the chance to get a picture that I'm surprised I actually got anything!!
It was fantastic to see this bald eagle in a tree on the side of the road about 2 miles from home, especially given how rare they are to see.


other sizes: small medium original auto

Where is the technical flaw? I might crop it down to emphasize the eagle but the sharpness and position are perfect imho. Bravo! V

Beauty is certainly in the eye of the beholder. I for one think this is an excellent shot. You caught the eyes focused on something; claws out and ready. The tree may be a little distracting and not places exactly right; but this is nature not a studio. Got my vote.
