Bald Eagle, Sandy Beach, Douglas, Alaska #2957

When I leave the office for a photo shoot, I usually have a subject in mind. I almost never go out without a preconceived image in my head, as I don’t like to wander around aimlessly. Sometime this directed approach provides for unexpected surprises, and this is exactly what happed during a recent foggy day in Juneau. I headed out to Sandy Beach, thinking I would shoot the historic pump house coming in and out of the fog. As I walked around my intended target, I found something much more interesting: This bald eagle sitting on the rotting pilings was really unexpected and different. The fog isolated the important elements in the photo…the eagle and its perch on the gnarled rotting pilings.  I found the image really striking.  I hope you agree. Thank you for visiting – Camera: Nikon D800,  Lens: Nikkor 24-120mm F/4 digital capture – ©Mark Kelley
