Have you aver sat there and taken a series of shots, then sat back and said "Wow" to yourself, then just hope you had all your settings right? ? It just happened! Very pleased with these. It was tough narrowing it down to 8 shots.

Wow! I have seen this sequence a lot before, but never from head on.

Great job!

I'd be celebrating if I got an opportunity like that.

Stunning shots. I took some once of an Eagle fishing from the side, but they didn't come out anywhere close to being as good as these.

Just to see that, especially from that angle, would be amazing. To actually capture it with excellent photos is beyond amazing.

I've been waiting for an eagle fishing and was finally rewarded, thanks for commenting.

Thanks, it did...low tide, late in the day, sun behind me, lots of fish, and a couple of hungry eagles.

Wow, Ian, what a sight! Great shots.

It was fun to watch Jake, but I truly didn't know what they looked like until I got home. Thanks very much.

Thanks Dan...it was great to be able to capture the whole sequence. It started with a different eagle who didn't dive, then this guy moved in and did...it was good.
