I WANTED TO SHARE THIS WITH MORE THAN FEW FOLLOWERS THAT I HAVE
IT WAS QUITE EXXITING AND VERY UBEXPECTED FOR ME.

IT'S MY TERITORY204 / 365I got rather excited this morning. I went out in front of the place across the road from me to get a photo of an island that had the early morning sun on it. I took a couple shots, and then I heard a strange noise from the large tree that I was under. A young Bald eagle had just taken flight. I thought (wow) then it flew a short distance and another eagle that was on an island to my right took flight, going after the first one I saw. They made full contact which can be seen in lower left. lower right. They went their separate ways after I took the bottom right. I was using a 75-300 lens. I wish I had had one with more reach. I would also like to know how I could have enlarged these before I put them into this collage.
Tomorrow morning I am going to look up into the tree before I do anything else.

How exciting! That's probably a rare treat to see and photograph. Thanks for sharing. Did you try cropping the image? I did that with my moon shot and it enlarged the moon significantly.

Wow!! That's awesome....amazing to see I'm sure. Maybe crop the pics to get closer? I use picasa to do my edits now becuz I am just starting. It is very user friendly and free :-)
Where was this taken? if you don't mind my asking.

That's really nice :) I have some shots of a red kite (31st January) that looked fairly bland and small before I cropped them down and then I really got the detail. Hopefully that would help?
