Bald Eagle Low Pass Flyby

canonloader · 24th of December 2006 (Sun)

Was just shooting at the river and looked up and this guy comes floating over the trees. Luck...

Whoa, and he had a santa hat on too?! Those are really nice shots. Sharp, perfect focus and well exposed.

canonloader · 24th of December 2006 (Sun)

LOL, yeah, he was pretty low, easy to focus on. I was pretty surprised too, cause I didn't expect an eagle where I was.

skade · 24th of December 2006 (Sun)

Wow, they are great shots! I see he is helping out Santa this year.. hehe

canonloader · 24th of December 2006 (Sun)

Yeah, but with that expression, not sure if he isn't looking for the ones who were naughty.

Well done Mitch, I think I have a better chance of tripping over an eagle here then getting close with a camera. Thanks for sharing.Merry X-mas

Both are fantastic shots, great timing, clarity, and light, and the eye is tack sharp, well done!

OK, time to take the hat off.

Thanks guys, for your views and comments.

Great capture, Mitch.

canonloader · 25th of December 2006 (Mon)

Thanks Paul. Mostly luck, partly carrying around the right equipment for when luck wants to smile on me.

Eagles are great and these are just as great... Excellent captures...
