Amber Clouds Of "Authority"
This piece was inspired by my passion for the Birds Of Prey, and the “Very Special” friendship that I share with my dear friend Julie Langford. So I’d like to dedicate this piece to Juls and To Special Friendships!
This is two photos I’ve edited and blended in PS. The background shot is one I had taken from my backyard as the sun was setting. And the bird of prey is a Tawny Eagle that Julie Langford had taken. I think it is an incredibly stunning shot!!! And I hope you like what I’ve done with this piece Juls!! :-)) Pleas see more of Juls Beautiful work
Some Info:
The eagle is one of the biggest and most powerful birds in the world.
Eagles have been linked to power and dignity by people everywhere.
Some naturalists believe an eagle can see a rabbit two miles away.
Eagles are found on every continent except for Antarctica. Some live in swamps and jungles, and still others live high in the mountains, along the shores of large lakes or in forests.
The eagle can glide for long periods of time without having to flap its long, broad wings. It is an expert at hitchhiking a ride on rising air currents. Using air currents, it may soar more than two miles above the ground.
Eagles are not the fastest birds, but they can reach speeds of about one hundred miles an hour.
An eagle’s eyes are very important part of its hunting equipment. It would starve without them. To protect them from injury, the eagle has a third eyelid that it can see through. This eyelid is called a nictitating membrane. It moves across the eye from side to side, cleaning and moistening the eye.
The eagle has made a comeback from the edge of extinction. More work is needed though to insure that the numbers continue to grow. We can help them by working together!!
