This photo was taken in Xochimilco Park in Mexico City. I had seen how this eagle was looking to catch fish so I started to follow the eagle. All of a sudden the eagle started to come right at me with the eyes looking down to the prey. At one point I guess it notice that I was there and turn the eyes up and i was able to catch it with the wings completely horizontal and looking pretty much at me. It was done with a Nikon Z9 and a 800mm lens on December 2nd.

Capture is great.
I would work a bit on contrast and colors.
Thank you.
I like it...these type of photos happen so fast. I agree with Lukasz, the background could use a minor adjustment...but not much.
Thank you
