Nature Bald Eagle Day at the Lake

Bald Eagle Day at the Lake · **6 Likes**

Got to spend 4 hours out in the kayak this morning. The bald eagles and blue herons were around. Here's some of the bald eagle shots. The last 2 were of the same eagle, I used the 1.4x Pentax teleconverter on the last one. The color has not been enhanced. I think it was just an effect from early in the morning. I think I might actually pull some of the color out when I look at them on my normal monitor.

Wow! Those are all superb shots of the Bald Eagle. Looks like the teleconverter performed well with the 150-450. Detail and colors are good in all images. Looking forward to more shots. Enjoy you time there.

I was pleased with how it performed. Since the eagle wasn't moving, I figured it would be a good chance to test. Thank you. I'm enjoying every minute. Right now it's a steak and some beer to end a good day.

Thanks Jer.

What a difference a monitor makes. On my laptop, they looked really oversaturated. On the monitor I connect to the laptop at home, they look pretty good. The color is still really vibrant, but nowhere near as saturated.

My experience with monitors is similar as is the early morning sunlight . These photos are beautiful anyway
