Hi Marcin,
Looks like a juvenile from the dark in the feathers, perhaps only a few years old. They lose the brown in their white feathers at around seven years. It's a nice shot, good detail and good DOF. As you say, beautiful eyes. I have a shot of a Bald Eagle of a similar age, he also has beautiful eyes. Good work.
Regards,
Adrian

Hello Marcin,
This is a very good portrait of this eagle!
I like so much the close approach and the eye contact. I really like that staring.
Very good POV and the way you managed the light and the composition.
Congratulations, thanks for share and best regards,
JM

Hi Marcin,

A good effort on this capture.
Your white balance was against you, I did a w.s. to help out.
It also revealed nice side lighting on the left side.

Nice close up with aesthetic illumination Marcin.

I like it a lot: composition, POV, DOF, focus, sharpness, color, lighting, background (real or PP?), framing.

I like it: notes.

I don't like it: nothing to quarrel.

Interesting post in spite of the captivity of the bird.
Cordially... Ricardo

Hello Marcin,
I agree with you about this look; it is very strong and impressive. You caught very nice details in a good POV. The centered composition works well here and this dark BG is much appropriated. I must say that the WS helps for the white balance but it is still a very nice post. Yes, this bird was in captivity but I guess that there is no way to take a similar picture with a wild bird :) Well done! Thanks,
Claudine
