Trying Steve’s idea of not having the full animal image. Very effective. Would like some feedback.

Not full image tryout. Let me know what you think.

Hi Jeff,
I like the concept of the shot - it makes the image have impact. The image looks a bit pixelated to me... or something, but overall the image and the cropping definitely accentuate the subject.

Hi Rob: thanks for the feedback. Yes on a larger computer screen, It’s probably not clean. I look mostly on my phone on which the pixelation is not so apparent. My pics in general are for 5x7 greeting cards and for texting to fam and friends. In which case I have a little more flexibility. This eagle was shot in great meadow, concord.
For that size this will probably work well then. Glad to hear/see that you're still having luck in Great Meadows - I've only been back once since I saw you there, but I keep thinking I should head back.
Like the pose and color. Tight crop works well. Does look a little soft on larger screen. There is a slight halo along the leading edge of the wing that is a little distracting
Is this how you shot it? Or how you cropped it?
This was seriously cropped and slightly tilted just to see the partial bird effect. I could probably work in it some more.
I think the main point of Steve's suggestion was to capture the image in camera.....not by doing severe cropping which negatively affects image quality.
