Description
Fine art photography of an American Bald Eagle with the American flag in the background. I had to get the Eagle between me and the flag (No photo shop here) and wait for just the right light and hope the Eagle would pose just right and not move off to create what I had in my minds eye. With lots of patience and luck I got the look I was hoping for (Power/Pride). Thanks for viewing this work I am so proud of.

David, I applaud you for your much deserved sale. This image is not only beautiful and well done, it is also a timely reminder of the strength and values in the country which I love, the United States of America. A topical issue always, is the defense and protection of our time honored and "not to be messed with" American Declaration of Independence. The current regime seems to want to treat the Constitution as if it is an item to be manipulated, misinterpretated and construed for its own means. and lately, since the topical issue of the meaning of The Constitution, this rings many bells with me, especially the bells of liberty.

Thanks to all for the wonderful comments and to those who purchased a print. This is one of the hardest photos that I have created. Being in the presence of such an amazing bird such as this Eagle was an exciting challenge for me. I have at least two dozen other images taken during my extremely lucky time with this American icon which did not live up to my vision of the majestic American Eagle (Proud, strong, powerful, beautiful, iconic). Thanks big Eagle.
