A very nice capture and composition; I especially like the positioning of the wings. In a perfect world, there would not be so much merge between the head and the background but that is just being picky. A great shot that I would be proud to have myself.

I really enjoy the action here, from the tell tale water spash to the determined look on the eagle's face.. Way to go..

You feel the movement here; the water splash still up makes a nice diagonal to the feathering that is this way and that way indicating the sharp accelleration very well.

Chas,

I've viewed many shots of Eagles just about to make a catch but this is the first I recall showing the instant after the catch.

Great Job!

Awesome shot Charlie. Love the tips of the wings flared up and the intense look.
