Very nice I like this shot very much.
The contrast, lighting and composition are very good.
I can actually seen the texture in the feathers.

Beautiful pic I love it. The detail is awesome. Although I am not a fan of borders, this one fits to the "T". Good work (10)

Crisp image and powerful quote. Not sure the tie to an eagle. 9

Cliche'ish, doesn't show the motivation of the statemnt is showing great power and representation. The front feathers need a little work, or cropping.

Terrific capture of this magnificent bird. Depth of field is just right, timing is perfect. I like the way the text is overlayed instead of being in a separate frame. Great entry.

Great great picture. However, the text doesn't seem to match the picture.

Really nice. Might of moved the crop up a bit, but just a thought. Nice work. Compliments!

Nice image but a vague concept. The idea of promotion only works if you create a comparative theme, so with a single subject it isn't strong enough. Did you consider cropping closer to get rid of the untidy feathers?

Gorgeous eagle! Not sure how the quote fits, though.

Nice photo, great detail and the composition is very good. The graphic design element with the text was done very well too. 8

Beautiful photo. Second eagle in this challenge, yet equally well done. I am not too sure about the text being so on the left and the font is kind of messy. But the photo itself is great.

Fantastic.

That kind of pinko feel-good namby-pamby philosophy will get you nowhere in this land of spin-doctors and the pre-emptive strike.
Great shot of the eagle; hope your poster gets wide distribution.
