Description Oops... blew the highlights and cropped it wrong. I'll remember to underexpose by 2/3 stop next time, rather than 1/3. The cropping was my fault, but hey she would not stay still!!

Cheyanne, at the Hawk Conservancy nr Andover after a flying display.

Thanks for looking!

It's gorgeous, though.

She is gorgeous ... I can always make time for her, as long as she doesn't try to remove my eyes/ears/fingers/arms etc.

Thanks for the comment!

Can't say if it's funny or evil. Maybe both? Can't say. Fav.

From Cheyanne... I'd say she's humourously evil. She'd probably cackle with laughter while pulling your fingers off lol...

Thanks for the comment and thank you for the +favorite!

Thanks Cy! I do like the look ... I've seen quite a few bald eagles, but this is the only one I know that can practically stop a heart by staring. A big thank you for the +favorite too... I really appreciate it!

This shot is fantastic, I am surprised there are no comments yet. Great work

RakkuAmiya In reply to KateHughes [2008-06-24 22:36:00 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I thought with a few favorites and (for my corner of deviantart anyway) a good few views I would have hoped for some comments. I put it on the front page to encourage something anyway. I'm glad you like it!

I did blow out the highlights though, and I can't correct it in photoshop as it's a block of white. The histogram on my camera lies I tell you...

I might go back there tomorrow after work if I can, and the weather behaves.
