Hi all

Here are some more shots from my pet project this year. To be out in the wilde photographing White-tailed Eagles is an amazing experience and I must say I enjoyed every minute of it. These shots only show few moments frozen in time but I do hope you enjoy them all the same. Please feel free to commnt (C&C)

Like the first series, these are breathtakingly beautiful. They really are some of the best eagle shots I have ever seen. What joy to watch. Thank you for sharing, Sindri.

Wow, exceptional images Sindri. I missed the first series but found it after a search and they're just as impressive. I can't choose a favorite.

Very nicely done!

Iceland is so much closer to me than going to Russia or Japan to shoot these birds..hmm

Fantastic job, every image incredible. Same lens and body?

Gorgeous shots Sindri....I agree with Levina, these are easily the best eagle shots I've ever seen posted here.

Fabulous Sindri...the first is absolutely spectacular with the bird in full flight (landing gear up) and yet so close to the ground.

Stunning images Sindri, I like them all...and that 3rd one of the Eagle standing in that black sand is really special to me. Super detail, I can count every feather in that portrait. Well done as always Sindri.
