At least you can keep going back and practicing. I have the same problem trying to pan with moving birds and keeping good focus. Sometimes it works great, other times not so much.

Keeping in mind that everyone's computers and devices are calibrated a little differently, I think #2 is perfect!
However you end up, the capture is fantastic. Super pose of the grand eagle, and very appealing curves of the small branches in the wider view - another reason I prefer that one :)

I think the branches make a better composition also.

IMHO for what it's worth, I think you went overboard on PP in #2, not a lot but enough. I think the best result would be about half way between them.
I agree with maybe too light in the wings and feathers. If I ever get the handle on using masking, I would be so much happier with my post production work. My biggest hang up is sharpness. If an animals eyes aren't sharp, I usually discard it.

They are both very good Mike, I like #1 because of the bluer skies.
Thanks for looking and offering your thoughts.

More Eagle photos. I'm not sure which is better. Both photos are the same but the first one is with only slight change to exposure. The second is with a little more PP. Please give comments on which everyone prefers. Photo taken with Nikon D7100, Tamron 150-600 at 320 mm, ISO 100, 1/1000, f/7.1. Both photos cropped.

When I opened the uglyhedgehog from my email, it usually shows all the topics listed by category, I just noticed that my topic didn't show up in that format but when I opened my topics it is there.

I see your post titled Bald Eagles in the gallery. Is that the one you are looking for?
Yes, that's it. It doesn't show up on my screen. Very curious. Thank you for your help.

Can anyone tell me what happens to my photos that I post here? I posted them last night around 10:00. Now today they don't show up in the photo gallery. When exactly are we supposed to post a picture if we want it to be seen for more than a couple of hours.

These photos were taken below Gavins Point Dam at Yankton, SD. All photos taken with a Nikon D7100 with a Tamron 150-600mm lens.

Love your eagle photos Regis. Mine never seem to be as great as yours!

Beautiful photos Regis, can't wait for the eagles to show up near me too. Look forward to seeing more of your photos.

You can change the setting with the dial, not the ring, leave it in lock. When the shutter is depressed the aperture will automatically move to the desired position, if you want a depth of field preview push the Preview button on the front of the camera .

If you want to use the aperture ring on the lens, you have to select that in custom settings. See page 257 in your cameras owners manual.

I actually don't want to use the aperture ring.
