You've captured his expression so well here and the foreground detail adds to the tentative mood of the image in a big way. I agree with Jeff.. 'you got him just right'. Great shot Yves!
Very nice pose you can definitely see that the Eagle is watching the sky for the bigger threat. I like the clean simple background/ composition with the eagle perched atop one branch. This gives the image a lot of strength and mystery as to what might happen next.
I love that image for about the same reason as you. I took many shot of the juvenile atop his branche (different poses) but that one is really the one that says - Oh Oh, The big guy is comming.
Great shot. His expression that you have captured so well says it all. The DOF is also excellent
Thank you Clifford. This is the juvenile bald eagle mentionned in the last week story on the big bald eagle.
