Baldie with some BG

Here are some shots from a few weeks ago. Most photographers avoid this type of background, I embrace it (call me crazy).
Enjoy.

You've done well here. Constructive use of backgrounds is always good when shooting birds on the wing - it gives a sense of territory and environment.

I love these shots. Well done.

I like it. I guess many shots are with just the sky as a background. Very interesting to see some different BG.

These are wonderful shots and I love how you have used the background elements! Very well done Terry!

I am so very impressed, there so clear, the background makes the difference for me.
Please tell me,do you set focus to Al servo or Al focas?

AL SERVO
This way as the subject moves, the camera focuses.

The background sure serves to remind us all that eagles aren't to be found only out beyond the ends of nowhere.

I think the backgrounds help show how man and eagle can coexist. I especially like the one in front of the restricted sign.
