Birds Bald Eagle Madonna

[-ST-]

I took this 30 minutes after sunrise which is why the Bald Eagle has a golden cast. That's the morning moon behind it. Which do you like better?

1. Looking horizontally and the shape of the head mirrors the shape of top of the moon.

2. Looking up and the head shape and angle mimics the partial moon

Both great shots. I personally prefer the head position in the first shot.

Love it. Maybe #2 for me, but both oh so good.
