January 31, Well I made it through my first month on Dallies. It was harder than I though it would be but it has been a great experience so far. Thank you to all who have offered their thoughts and comments. Hearing your encouragement and seeing all the fantastic work displayed in the community has challenged and motivated me to keep plugging away.
Not my best technically but I walked up on this guy unexpectedly as he was grabbing a fish. He then took a victory lap over the river and around the river front skyline. it was very late in the afternoon and a real stretch for my Simga 50mm-500mm f 4-6.3. Only got one usable out of the string of many shots...better than nothing. Thanks again for your inspiration.

on February 1, 2010Fantastic shot -- so unusual to see a shot like this with an urban landscape in the background.
My sister just gave me a photography book on Waterbirds by Theodore Cross. Have you seen it? It's quite fantastic, and I think you would like it.

on January 31, 2010Good catch for both him and you..... surprised... but good to see our Eagle surviving so close to populated areas.

on January 31, 2010Too bad about the background because he is gorgeous! I'll bet you could "select" him out of that image and put him in a whole new one very easily. You'd think I'd done it before but, I haven't. If this was my image, I'd be learning how to do that and placing him/her on a beautiful blue sky or sunset or something! Very nice.
