Immature Eagle In Flight

I liked the wing position and coloration of the wings on this Wisconsin Bald Eagle. Processed using Lightroom CC (2015) and Photoshop CC (2017) along with Light Craft's LightZone. Comments and critiques welcome.

A nice flight shot with good wing position and detail, Jerry. The high key bg sets the Eagle off well.

You are really able to get a lot of detail on this eagle shot. Nicely done. The high key processing does a good job of bringing out all the color in the Eagle.

Excellent flight shot - great wing position, head position, detail and comp.
I'd personally try to tone the bright BG down a bit, and saturate the yellow eye a tad more.
Fine image!

I liked it too, Jerry.
Great image. I liked that white sky, the contrast is so great.

Hi Jerry,

This eagle looks fantastic with your high key exposure. Large view is a must see devil

Nice photo of the immature eagle. You captured the pattern details very well. A great speciman.

Nice flight shot. Great detail throughout and the high key look shows the eagle well.
