Okay here in IL is the second largest gathering of eagles every year next to Alaska (near 3000 this year)
I love eagles so i gabbed my gear and drove out!!
D40
70-300mm Nikon VR lens
UV filter
Polerizer filter
i have been frustrated because these shoots looked good until i got home and put them 100% then they are blurry
Using "A" Mode
1/320 @ F11 ISO 200 @ 300mm

1/250 @ F11 ISO 200 @300mm
http://www2.turbov6camaro.com:443/eagle/eagle2.jpg (same thing as above)
see how blurry the eagle is ? (mostly the head)
I tried everything i could on the spot, ISO 800, lower F stop, VR off, filters off and all the combos i could try they all look the same.
I realize the sun is on the wrong side but i also have some shot of one a tree and the was behind me and i got the same results
So is it me or the lens? need longer lens? or need less dumb me?
just to check the lens i snapped this with (are these good, i think they are really good wish i would have taken a few more now )
1/125 @ F11 @ ISO 200 @ 70mm
