[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This morning I went into the Lamar Valley in Yellowstone National Park to see what I could see, Lucy was not well and Papa wanted a rest. When I got there I found the usual Bison and Pronghorns but with the nice fall colors all around. Then a pair of Golden Eagles that were soaring overhead landed near, but not too near so this is cropped a great deal, but when I returned, in my E mail, I find that Luis would come back as an Eagle if he could so, I dedicate this image to him. Luis is such a talented photographer and good Amigo, Hola my friend.

Hello Rick

What an interesting concept,returning as some sort of animal.
The composition is lovely and natural and the vivid blue sky makes a perfect backdrop for this Golden eagle.
The statuesque pose is superb.
A wonderful capture.

Hi Rick,

This Eagle has a very self-important posture! I guess he has the right since he is such a beautiful and impressive bird. I like the natural setting. A wonderful dedication to Luis - I would like you to take a picture of him if he returns as an Eagle.

Hi Rick,
I would have been very impressed to see this majestic bird! Look at the way he poses and the way he looks at you...! You chose good composition in excellent POV that makes the bird looks bigger than in real :)! Excellent picture!
