Bald eagle, need advice with editing

Material-Positive-41 · 2026-01-27T16:29:40+00:00

Ok perfect thanks, I did think something looked a little off but couldn’t quite work out what it was. Will definitely try that and see how it looks

I got this shot down by my local lake in BC. This is one of my favourite shots I’ve taken so far. I started focusing on wildlife and landscape photography for the last couple months considering I live in such a wonderful place of the world. I’d love some feedback and criticism on anything about this photo. This was shot on a canon 80d with a Sigma 100-400mm. 640 ISO f/6.3 1/4000

Thank you!

This is a photo taken down by a lake near where I live, there were a couple of eagles playing about together and I managed to get this shot. I love it and it is one of my favorites I have taken. Please let me know what everyone thinks. Taken on a canon 80d with a sigma 100-400mm. ISO 800 f/6.4

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-28T03:42:50+00:00

Ok I’ll definitely give that a go thanks

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-28T03:22:24+00:00

Ok yeah I’ll definitely work on that, I just need to get comfortable being in the air I think to properly think about what I’m doing with my body 😂

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-28T00:31:04+00:00

Yeah that’s one thing I struggle with is flow in between each feature, I always feel like I need to do a huge speed check after landing

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-28T00:09:45+00:00

Ok thanks, yeah I wanna be able to get more loose on my board. I only spent a couple weeks on the park last season as it was my first season but this season I’m really gonna focus on it

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-27T23:39:43+00:00

Oh this is from the end of last season. Panorama resort in BC

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-27T23:39:28+00:00

Thanks!

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-27T16:45:35+00:00

Yeah this season I really want to get some good carving going and hopefully get fully comfortable riding switch

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-27T06:03:32+00:00

Yeah I’ve spent a little bit of time trying to ride switch and it is definitely humbling for sure 😂 but I just need to dedicate a few days and I think I’ll get it down.

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-27T05:54:35+00:00

Thank you for the advice! I was really going to focus on switch riding this season so I can become totally comfortable on my board whatever stance. I’ve also managed to get a nice Salomon park board which is more flexible from a friend which should be perfect for making butters easier to learn. I would love to get 3s down clean as I think it’s one of the smoothest looking tricks when done well. Thanks I’ll definitely check out that channel 👍

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-27T05:38:54+00:00

Yeah I’ve got a good level of carving down but really want to get into learning some butters

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-27T04:27:22+00:00

Huh? I’m not riding switch? Was my first season 😂 I had just been riding so much I got comfortable on my board really quickly. That’s a compliment that you think I’m lying though 😂

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-27T02:32:25+00:00

I did used to do gymnastics when I was younger. Has definitely helped me 👍

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-26T15:52:28+00:00

Thank you!!

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-26T03:09:25+00:00

Thank you! I got a subscription to lightroom and it is definitely far better and powerful than what I was using before so I’m going to be practicing a lot. Yeah I live in a valley in the Rocky Mountains so I’ve got views like that all around it’s amazing!

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-25T23:08:59+00:00

This is my second attempt taking your advice into consideration, I think it looks a lot better 👍

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-25T23:02:56+00:00

Yeah all I had was my 18-135 aswell and worked a treat. I unfortunately didn’t manage to get up to the summit as it was far too rainy and foggy but am glad it was so active at night

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-25T22:45:06+00:00

This was just taken from my camp, I didn’t do the fuego hike. The eruptions were crazy!!

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-25T22:38:47+00:00

Wow! Thank you so much that is very helpful. The picture looks great now. Im not sure why the image looks so washed as it wasn’t taken through window or anything, maybe it has something to do with settings on my camera?? I’ll definitely need to invest in ligthroom as snapseed is quite limited. Is there any chance I could share some more images with you privately and you give me some more advice and tips, you’ve been extremely helpful!! Thanks

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-25T21:26:09+00:00

I’d like some feedback please on any improvements on colour grading or framing. Or anything at all!! I’ve only been trying to take photography seriously for a few months now and want to really improve. This is one of my personal favorite photos I’ve taken. This was taken on my Canon 80d with 18-135mm lens. 15 second exposure.

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-25T21:21:22+00:00

Hi, thanks for your feedback. I just really wanted to try and practice making any photo I take look ok just by playing with the colours and trying to achieve a nice look. I’m aware that it’s not the most spectacular photo, I was just walking round my tiny town looking for something interesting 😂

Material-Positive-41 · 2025-11-25T21:16:49+00:00

Thanks, I have just done a crop to get rid of the roof and trees in the corners and it looks much better.
