published an Article about an eagle hunter in the Kazak area of Mongolia.. Two years later another group visited the eagle hunter in Northwest Mongolia. This is his eagle, the same one in the NG article. We flew from Ulan Bator to Olgi in a Russian Antanoff 34 twin engine turboprop, then took Russian Jeeps for about a day. That night, someone siphened one of the two tanks of fuel from a van, while people were sleeping in the van. The next morning, we waded across the Hovd River to the island where the eagle was kept. On the drive back, we found out the gas had been stolen and were able to stop someone to get some extra gas.
I took this image with a Nikon N90, extension tube , exposure not recorded, 75-300mm, I also desaturated the image and will post the same image below this one. I am not sure which I prefer,but there have been several B&W shots posted on NSN and I wanted to get an opinion of the comparison. The border is an experiment also with colors from the interior of the photo, then lightened. Comments welcome. Steve Bein
