A nice photo, but I'm wondering what those 3 orange circles are?

UNfortunately, this eagle is not independant. It must rely on the person that tethered it.

I would have liked to see a bit more contrast in this photo, looks a bit washed out, great shot

It looks as though there is a leash of some sort on this eagle. Let him fly free.

This is a really good capture, but the overall quality of the photo is lacking. It actually looks like the quality of a screen grab from a video.

What an opportune capture. The tree in the background is a problem. Low resolution works against the effect.

Looks a little fuzzy. Not sure if you mean't to do that to show action. Maybe trying levels could help to make verything a little more crisp and then some contrast. Just a thought.

The idea of the eagle being a symbol of independence would be more realistic if it did not have leather straps around it's ankles.....makes me think more of oppression than independence in this case.

Would be nice if this guy wasn't wearing jesses, I guess that's why you titled it "Transitory" meaning his independence is temporary?

The stop motion is good. but I think it's too tightly cropped. The sky is way too blanched out. Maybe a stronger saturation or different time of day would have made it more effective. The tree "growing out " of his wing is a distraction.
