Hi,

Click of these two majestic flyers.

I am aware of the Serpent Eagle is not as sharp because my position was towards the light source, is there any way to tackle such situation. Can HDR help me in such situations ?

Any inputs about the post processing as well would be great.

Exposure compensation or fill-in flash (using a flash extender like a Better Beamer) would have helped in your serpent eagle situation, but HDR is really not suitable for moving subjects. If the subject were to move while taking multiple frames, ghosting would be evident in the combined image.

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

On the first, IMO make it a silhouette it's almost is. Enhance the eyes.

Cool looking bird! I think fill flash with a BB would have helped. Some people like ETTL and some like Manual flash.
