OMG!!! OMG!!! What an exceptional capture!!!! Is that a fish tail? ... or a bug’s wing? WOW!! Never have seen an Eagle’s tongue that good!! WOW!! I’m just in awe here!!
Rick & Deb Larson replied
Hi DJ, LOL….is this a thriller?? You think?? It’s a fish tail…can’t ya tell? No really it is…honest!! We caught quite a few shots this time where the fish tail was sticking out of their beaks, it was COOL!! We’re trying to get this one accepted in Exreme Close-Ups for their Bird challenge, think it will make it? We can only hope. THANK YOU SO MUCH, DJ!! Take Care :-)

Phenomenal shot, Deb! A real prize winning image and much coveted opportunity! I’m so happy for you to have this EXCEPTIONAL photo added to an already impressive portfolio!
Rick & Deb Larson replied
Hi Bonnie, THANK YOU SO MUCH!! My husband took this shot (actually we both took other shots similar to this one), we both have a GREAT time when we get out amongst the Eagles in the wild, I had one swoop right over my head hitting my head with it’s wing as it flew over, what a RUSH that was, so exhilarating!! Thank you for your high praise of our portfolio, we truly appreciate that, and we’re so glad that others are enjoying our photos. Thanks again, Take Care :-)

This is amazing! National Geographic award!!! Fabulous capture Rick!!
Rick & Deb Larson replied
THANK YOU SO MUCH Blair!! National Geographic was up here in Alaska maybe about 4 or 5 years ago, doing a story North of the Brooks Range, they happened to be in my husbands office where he had some of our Eagle shots running as a slide show, the photographer saw them and told Rick how impressed he was with our captures (that really made us feel good). Thanks again, Take Care :-)
