I really enjoy raptors Goldy. Although I see them every day they are up about 1000 feet and circling..and when they land...they still feel somewhat unsafe when I stop my car. Very nice close in with good description....You almost had that DOF spot on...like about 1 f stop away...but it gives some very nice natural patterns to the tree bark....sometimes things just end up the way they are supposed to...

Hello Goldy,
Well captured from a moving truck! The fine POV, timing, colours, details and composition contribute to a great capture of a Crested serpent Eagle (with captured serpent), even if the head is slightly OOF.
Thanks and all the best,
Ivan

Hey Goldy,

Nice pose of the bird. It was tough for you to shot this in a moving truck so the sharpness has gone for a toss. But the bird is amazing with a kill in its claws (snake I think)

Well done!

TFS,
Kedar

Despite the limitations of a moving truck, you have done a very good job of shooting this Eagle with its kill at its feet, Goldy.
The eye in particular is brilliant.
Your communion with your camera is getting better and better.
Keep shooting and all the best.

Hello Goldy,
From the circumstances you made the best out of it. Not easy to take a good photo from a driving car and harsh backlight.
Excellent POV, sharpness and good composition. Nice pose.
Regards,
Peter

Hi Goldy,

This is a bird I have not seen before. Hard to believe you took it from a moving truck! A wonderful pose on the tree with his victim laying on the branch. Good colors and details of his face and feathers. I love the yellow eye!!!

Hi Goldy,

The branches are framing well the bird. The point if view is showing the details and colors of Crested Serpent-eagle. The picture is clear and precise. The luminosity is enhancing the colors. Have a nice day.
