Great set Jordyn!

I especially like the one where it's eating the fish.

Wonderful shots, they do look very regal. They also look much darker in colour than those on the east coast.

Nice pics. Thanks for sharing. Have you had much luck with eagles in flight with the 6D? I have a 6D paired up with my 100-400 and had fair luck with it about a week ago. Poor light that day didn't help much.

It's very tough. The one thing the 6D struggles with is AF for birds in flight. I had some success with the owls which had better light. Check them out in my other thread in the Birds Section

Thanks, pretty much what I'm thinking. I did play with the custom function settings in the menu after last week and perhaps will give it another try on the Mississippi River this weekend. I just sold my 60D this past Sunday and I'm on the fence with the 7D Mark II. Reviews seemed mixed however I've seen some good photo's from it here and on Fred Miranda.

Yeah the AF on the 7dii is a lot better than the 6d.

This is a great set of images. Only one nit....they appear over sharpened on my monitor.

There will be days when you get the shot(s) you missed days, months or years before.

Hmm, that is interesting. I actually didn't touch the sharpness sliders whatsoever in LR. The only thing I did was crop a bit and fiddle with the exposure/coloring before exporting them to PS. In PS I just resized the images for web publishing and added the small border.
