Windswept
Khutzeymateen Grizzly Bear Sanctuary of Northern BC Canada is home to many Bald Eagles. Early morning the wind was just rising when we came upon this Bald Eagle flying into these very tall spruce trees. The wind was strong and waves were developing as we bobbed in our Zodiac boat. This image capture was a challenge with using a long lens, hand held from the side of the bobbing boat. The lichen hanging from the tree branches were being lifted and swaying in the very stiff wind, giving a Windswept feeling. It was a Category Winner in a Texas based magazine, with over 10K competing images.
Also a Winner in the NIKON Canada Competition 2017, being presented in major cities across Canada.
