Nice in flight photo, pretty close to the eagle. Wish it were a bit brighter.

What an amazing bird, a scary perspective!

I think it's cropped a bit too tight, not leaving this moving bird anyplace to move into. Also a little noisy, probably partly from the crop. colors and contrast ok.

Rather crisp shot! Very nice. Only criticism is cut off wing. Darn near a perfect capture though!

Nice shot, I can't imagine how tough this shot was. Great job catching him with his wings open I wish the composition was just a little stronger.

A bit dark and the shot is lacking in contrast for a majestic subject like this.

Too much JPEG compression as well, possibly resulting in some loss of fine details. Your file size is just over half of what was allowed. Check your compression settings when saving for challenges.

This shot is a good one to show how they tuck their feet in during flight.

beautiful image--wish the wing tip did not go off the top of the image, though
