The Mighty White bellied Sea Eagle It was fading light of 6:20 in the evening when I was trying some shots of beach dogs with open f value like 4-5 and this bird came so close making loud calls that I immediately raised my ISO &amp; shutter to shoot it as I knew that it might not happen again in future(so close encounter).. I checked my shots immediately after it passed by me from above... I was shocked as I couldn&#039;t manage sharp shots though the eagle was too damn close to me as I shot this at 260mm then I realized I was playing with open f and when I raised ISO + shutter, I forgot to change my f value.. <br /> <br /> (Photographers are never satisfied ;-) ) shooting wildlife always has its moments &amp; am happy sharing this memory :-) <br /> <br /> id: White bellied Sea Eagle<br /> <br /> at Ratnagiri, Maharashtra, India.<br /> oct, 2015<br /> <br /> Exif:<br /> Nikon D5200 + Tamron 70-300mm<br /> F/7.1<br /> ISO: 2000<br /> Exposure: 1/1000sec D5200,Haliaeetus leucogaster,IncredibleIndia,Maharashtra,Nikon,NikonD5200,Ratnagiri,Tamron,White-bellied Sea Eagle,Wildlife,abhitap,incredible india,jagtap Click/tap to enlarge Country intro

The Mighty White bellied Sea Eagle

It was fading light of 6:20 in the evening when I was trying some shots of beach dogs with open f value like 4-5 and this bird came so close making loud calls that I immediately raised my ISO & shutter to shoot it as I knew that it might not happen again in future(so close encounter)..

(Photographers are never satisfied ;-) ) shooting wildlife always has its moments & am happy sharing this memory :-)

    Great capture! I very much recognize the issue of white skies, there's not much you can do about it. Posted 9 years ago
