You know, those eagles have a 6-7 feet wingspan. You don't realize just how big they are until you see one close by...
The third image is really nice but it looks like it has a lot of noise in it. Did you have to adjust the levels significantly? It strikes me as an image that started off quite dark....just curious, that does not take away from how beautiful it is. I like the composition of the second one also.
One last thing, it looks like it is stretched out horizontally... are these stills posted at the right aspect ratio?
Great shots! You have a good eye for scene composition.
Fascinating stuff! It's amazing to think that this nomadic culture once spead its influence and power from the shores of Japan to the Middle East and even into Europe. Amazing.

It was this quote that was used in Conan the Barbarian:
"Conan, what is best in life?
“To crush my enemy, to see him driven before me, and to hear the lamentations of the women."

Actually, the American Bald Eagle was removed from the Endangered Species list...
Them eagles are cool, i watched this nature program once, where they mounted a camera on an eagle and filmed it in flight, it makes flying monovers that a even a flighter jet would be incabable of!
