Wow, would love to be able to capture the bald eagle in the wild.

Have you checked out a guy called Steve Perry? He is a birder and has some great videos on YT ( https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChUi5Gm8w-S_d6dS31cFCnQ ) and also a website which has some great information ( https://backcountrygallery.com/ ).

He is also very approachable.

excellent pics as always

Only a shitty iPhone photo, but one of the stranger jobs my team got called to this morning.

Likes appreciated ;o)

Super shots Steve. I was under the impression that the Bittern was very difficult to capture, so well done for those.

I was actually really surprised that clipping the eyeballs (very quickly/roughly) and tripling their size didn’t actually make it all that unbelievable. Might try again with a little more subtlety, some time.

Just need to add some glasses too :eyeglasses: :smiley::laughing:

Add your own reflection in the eyes … showing that you were only 50cm away. :stuck_out_tongue:
