Oh my! Paul, for you to be able to show the tiny feathering on the feathers themselves! What a most magnificent thing!! How fortunate you are to be able to get this grand of a closeup of this gorgeous bird! Practicing? I think you've mastered it long ago. Your photography skills are outstanding Paul!! Thank you so much for this fantastic bird photo!! Huggggggggs....Verena
AWESOME CLARITY!!! Wonderful close up and details are sky high. I have never seen this magnificent bird in my life and thanks to you I have seen up close now. faved
I don't think I've seen a clearer photograph, anywhere, in any publication, of my country's national bird. Every other shot I've seen includes the darker feathers of the body but this closeup truly shows this bird's awesome presence of being, it's strength and determination. Not all Americans believe the bald eagle was the right choice for our national bird, but I think the folks who chose it had this image in mind. I'm assuming this is done with your 100mm Macro? The individual spines of the tiny feathers on his face pop right out at me. Faved for certain, and thank you for sharing it with us.
Indeed a beautiful and clear photo of one of my favorite subjects. Thank you Paul. (p.s. I can talk and try to convince your boss to give you some more time off. With results like this..just fantastic!)
