 Thanks to Andi for hobbling around Groombridge Place with me last weekend and for helping me decide which shot I should enter!

I loved the owls at this place, they had the most amazing eyes I have ever seen, however, I know a guy who's entering one so thought I'd try my luck with this Bald Eagle shot I took during the flying demonstration.

This is GOOOD! It looks like taken in flight, but could be on the hand, as it were - I have a feeling that if you could copy the trees in the background, and reverse and paste to the blank space on the left, that it would look more settled.

Or, take away the trees to white background, and it could well be a flight shot. I am intrigued by what it is eating - looks like some form of weird crustacean, or dyed oat ears

better placing will come your way, I have no doubt - a very nice shot

I am trying to understand what is going on with the background and tail on the left.
