Hi Harry,
interesting picture here for more than one reason. First of all I think it's a high quality image of the bald eagle. We nearly get used to your level of photography, it is by far not so obvious as it seems.
Then..I see just a few concentric circles in front of the bird which hence provides the good reflection in the water. He (or she) must be walking upstream. Last, I wonder why the movement of the wings which are visible from the bird, seem absent in the reflection.
But most of all another terrific picture
Regards, Jacob

Hi Harry,
i must've been quite a sight to see so many of these magnificant birds en masse like that. Great timing as usual with a well planned composition. The colour of the water is just beautiful, very well done. Your work is of such a high standard.

Hello Harry,
What a perfect timing. Fantastic light and focus on the head of the bird. The reflection is wonderful, in some places almost sharper than the bird himself. I love the POV and composition.
Regards,
Peter

Hello Harry,
This shot makes a nice pattern, the Bald-headed Eagle and its reflection combining to create an attractive composition. For a scanned shot this has good technical qualities and the lighting superb.
TFS and best wishes, Ivan

Hello Harry,
Amazing picture again! Looks like coming straight out of Greek mythology. A mix of Zeus and Narcissus. You seem to be always at the places where happen special actions. Excellent framing, sharpness.. everything.

Hello Harry,
An excellent picture with an appropriate title! From your notes it seems this place is a paradise for wildlife photographers. At least I would have loved to visit it.
Composition:
This is a great symmetric composition in which you nicely avoided placing the eagle into the middle of the frame. The slightly larger empty space in front of the bird is just enough to create a balanced picture. The wings are nicely blurred and suggest movement.
Colors:
I love the warm brown hues in the eagle's plumage and the blueish reflection of the sky in the water.
Contrast:
The contrast was distributed very well: higher in the subject and lower in the rest of the picture.
Exposure:
In spite of the difficult subject you exposed both shadows and highlights perfectly even if in full sun. The details in the plumage are wonderful and so are the ripples in the water.
Focus:
The focus is precise on the eagle rendering sharp details and the DOF was well controlled to add some perspective to the picture.
A pleasant image to look at! The notes are informative and well written. Thank you for sharing!
With Friendly Regards,
Eddie

Hi Herry.
D300 – it is a cool choice. I wish you the fastest purchasing of the camera.
I also have seen your site. It is cool too. I think this shot is from there. Excellent timing, amazing mirror reflections, impressive lighting (and darks) and cold (I think) colours. Wonderful picture, TFS and best wishes.
Alexei.

Hi Harry,
I know the feeling of not having enough time for TN. Let alone for TN, TL and my local photoclub (maybe one for you to join as well??). But then it is always great to come back and see wonderful photos like this one. Intersting to read that you went for the D300 and not the D3, it gives good insight on your type of photography. Make me want to go for the Canon 5D even more.
The wonderful pose and the stunning reflection are pefectly captured. I like the idea that he can see the fish and we can't. This time I do like the motion in the wings, since it shows the moment even more.
TFS,
Niek

Nice clear reflection. I like the way you kept the full reflection in the frame.
Oh, so I guess it is time to get a D300 now too. They also released some new lenses. Does it ever stop?? $$

Hi Harry,
This is a class picture.Was this published in National geography? The reflection is wonderful and the action that you have managed to get is something that wonders me. This is truly a masterpiece from the master himself.

Hello harry,
Fantastic action shot! The POV and composition are just great. Beautiful light and reflection caught.I wonder which one is sharper, the bird or the reflection?:)
Thanks a lot for sharing this photograph.
Regards,
Smitha.
p.s. Last week a friend of mine sent me a set of award winning photographs in which i think i saw this very picture. Is that so? Was there any other photo belonging to you among them?

Hello Hary!
The title is so good to this picture that only for it the points are necessary! But of course also the quality of picture is very good (as always!). Not only perfect timing, but also great DOF and POV. The reflection is so natural that it really looks like photo with 2 not only 1 eagle :)
Many thanks for showing this interesting and unique composition!!!
Best greetings,

Hello Harry. I have countless history of failures with birds and this have been the shot I always wanted to make. I had chances but turned out blurry and low quality. Very well taken shot here and I like everything I see in that frame. Best regards. Jusni

Hello Harry
Amazing shot with super action and reflections.
The POV is awesome.
I love how the shot is divided into the turmoil and action side,and the placid reflection side.
Excellent use of the lighting,the colours are natural.
