    Very interesting capture, with excellent details in your subject. Was that with your Tamron 200-500 also?

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Thanks Dan. I was out at Wolf Lodge Bay, past Coeur d'Alene, ID. This link gives you a bit of info.

    If you follow this link you will see a map with an area called Beauty Bay. If you follow the road on the map from Beauty Bay back toward Wolf Lodge Bay, you will see a sharp right hand turn. On that turn, you can go right out very close to the lake. You are maybe 10-15 ft above the lake. The Eagles fly all over the place there fishing in the lake. It is a great place to take pictures!

    Wow
    Wonderful shot. Nice light.
    :D Not wearing them out for me. That is unless the eagles mind all the attention.

    I love eagles. I'll shoot them all day and like the inspiration of looking at other photographers shots of them. Keep up the good work!
