I got this image last year on Veranga Fjord in Norway. Managed to get quite close to it before it flew away.

Hi Ron. The detail in the larger image is just great! I do think that it is just a tad over-saturated, though. I do have my monitor calibrated. Easy fix.

I really like the detail the feathers. I found the background and brightness of the water was a bit distracting, but the sharpness in the eagle make for a very enjoyable image.

Wow, the thumbnail doesn't do this justice. Great habitat and I like the way he is holding that left wing, like he is protecting a catch in front of him. Nice detail.

Great shot Ron, I like how it´s holding its wing and the environment, it looks a little oversatured to me as well.
