Tree Top Heavy Weight

(Please view original size)

One of my preferences is to see wildlife surrounded by their natural setting.
Of course, shooting with 200mm as a maximum focal length will give you this by default. LOL
Maybe its time to get a bigger piece of glass.


other sizes: small medium large original auto

Now there's a proud guy! His ego would have been bruised if that little branch had snapped! Nicely seen, and beautifully captured Brian....

Yes well most people know how I feel about wildlife in their natural settings, so great capture Brian, well seen and taken.....Get the 1.4x and it will work great with this lens..

Beautiful - perfect capture Brian - very well seen ! Good framing - Our Vote :)
PS: We also have the 70-200mm focal zoom lens, and we just invested in a 1.7 teleconverter and it sure makes a difference -
anyhow - your image is VERY good! :)

Great shot!

Nice shot Brian and throw in the fact that it is with a 70-200 you must be pretty close.

Great catch!

Beautiful shot. Great setting and compo. Yes a bigger reach certainly would have given you greater detail of the Eagle, but you would have lost a bit of the natural surroundings. V.

Looks great with the foliage as part of the setting. Vote.

Gary Winters19-Feb-2008 05:29
Quite impressive!

I think it looks pretty good in original with the 200, Brian, but of course new glass is always great :>)
Sandi Whitteker19-Feb-2008 05:17
Close is nice, but this is a very pretty shot inlcuding the environment. Beautiful eagle!
