Wisconsin Immature Bald

Another image from my Wisconsin trip over Christmas. I think this guy was still a bit young and did not have the deep coloration of the sdults. I liked the good look at the massive outstretched wing on this one. Processed using Lightroom 5 and Photoshop CC 2014. Comments and critiques welcome.

Canon 7D Mark II
Canon 200-400 f4 L IS

Hi Jerry,

The eagle looks good on a bright, clean sky blue BG.  I like the position of the bird in the frame.  The wing position looks good too.

As Always,

Jim

A fine flight shot of this eagle. Nice detail; exposure good with bo blown whites.

Good flight shot that captures the size of the bird effectively. I'm surprised you were able to get the 7 foot wingspan in focus at f5.6.

Nice flight image Jerry. I also like the left wing on this. Nice techs as well.

Nice regal wing position on this Jerry. Great job on the difficult darks and whites too. devil To answer your question on my last Eagle post; It was taken near Sunset Marina in Rock Island, IL.
