Eagle from this past summer

One of those images that didn't make the first cut. Required quite a bit of PP but what else is a guy going to do this time of year up here? Had to do a pseudo HDR on this one to get detail in the underside of the bird. It was nearly a silhouette in the original.

My daughter lives up there, and was complaining the other day about snow knee deep in her yard.

You did a good job with the PP of this image......... Love that wing spread.

Excellent EIF!

Try selecting just the white of the head and removing the blue cast that loves the shadows and see what you think...since you ain't doin' nothin' anyway!

Thusly. Yes, much improved. Thanks for the suggestion. While I was at it went back and did a little better job with the USM as well. The beak looked a bit funky.

Good job on the rework. It improved an already fine capture.

Thanks, Harry.
