On the Skagit River

This eagle obviously sits here a lot as the stump shows the sign of many claws softening the top. I took this picture during an eagle watch trip on the Skagit River in Washington State.

Somehow I missed this image when I was leaving comments, but better late than never. Ann, this is incredible ! I love the clarity of the eagle and the stump, with the light mist obscuring the trees in the background. Superb shot. -johnebones

Wow, this is such a great photo! The background, lighting, everything is just perfect.

Like a beautiful art print...very well captured, Ann. The clarity and color contrast of the main subject against the muted background and "surrounds" is stunning IMO. Really a "moody" and majestic scene...a beautiful sight to behold! Great shot. MFC
