This is a nail bitter. It's a really crisp shot but the fact that it says don't photograph an eagle makes me not want to give it a high score. Ughhh I'll have to vote on the whole challenge and come back to this one. |
so why such a high finish? guess nobody read the damn rules this time around. super cliche shot. |

No points for hitting the cliche!
Could do with a little more deth of field as the outline feathers of the eagle's head are not in focus. |

I'm sorry, it's a nice shot, but when the challenge description says "For example, it is a stereotype using an eagle as a symbol of USA. However, challengers could photograph something else to represent the spirit of USA instead of an eagle.", it's hard to score an eagle high... |

Not the most original spin. A very well done eagle portrait, though. |

Came back to bump this photo. I originally had this at a 4 because I thought the challenge description said that submissions should not be of an eagle. On review though, I notice it says photogs could photograph something other than an eagle. Sorry for the oversight, I have scored your photo a 6 now. Good luck :) |

Great focus and clarity. I bet you're going to get a lot of people asking if you read the challenge description. |

Don't suppose anyone has pointed this out yet-
For example, it is a stereotype using an eagle as a symbol of USA. However, challengers could photograph something else to represent the spirit of USA instead of an eagle. |

I despise these Eagle shots. They are such a DPC cliche. This does however suit the challenge so I'll have to like this one I guess. Nicely composed. DOF is good but we seem to be lacking detail in the lower feathers which is a shame because it takes our attention a bit |
