  I am captivated by your relationship with this pair of eagles. This is a great catch and my favorite. You'll never forget the "rush" that you are getting with each of these wonderful shots.

  I have never seen a capture quite like this before, Hal - you've captured her fury and rage magnificently - beak open, talons extended - with remarkable clarity, detail and impeccable timing. This MUST be seen again!!! Excellent capture, flawless execution.
