First attempt at Bokeh?
I know the last thing we need is another Eagle shot but ya gotta love'em. Taken at the Toronto Zoo. This bird wasn't doing much except for looking beyond its cage and probably thinking.. Look at all that space and freedom out there!!
The cage might cost me some points so I'm not expecting much. Looking for feedback.

Critique Club feedback -

The cage lines aresort of distracting, but I actually find myself liking how they break up the background. nice bokeh. The angle this was shot from and the composition of the shot probably kept the score down a little bit. The lighting is nice though, I like how it highlights the bird's face.

He's pretty scruffy looking, and not ideally posed. Don't you hate it when models just won't do what you ask them? :)
