Bald Eagle in Silhouette

[rtbaum]

Proof that messed up and impossible shots can be interesting. Over the past several days, I have seen a number of immature bald eagles; every time backlit. This shot seems to work with the pastel sky as a background. I don't feel too bad about the lack of detail as immature bald eagles are kinda ugly anyways

I am off tomorrow to SE Minnesnowta (land of 10,000 lakes and damn cold), which is Bald Eagle heaven. I hope to capture the more iconic Bald Eagle shots.

I agree that this is a nice image. Good luck on your trip!
