And At Last, Some Final Abstract Eagles

September 19, 2025  •  Leave a Comment

We close this series with a few more eagle abstractions to reduce images of eagles to their essential elements. These images convey impressions of eagles; they don’t attempt to depict exact, detailed inventories of eagle features. (Except for the very last three images.)

 

November 15 note: There  were fatal display problems originating with the website host (Zenfolio); I couldn't see all the eagle images in this and other recent posts, so you might not be able to, either.  I reloaded some of them, but not all, partly because the Zenfolio blog site doesn't keep exact file numbers for posted images. Very frustrating.  I apologize for any (and all) viewing inconvenience. Many thanks for your patience and understanding.

As a contrast, the final three images offer an exact, detailed, high-resolution inventory of one eagle’s appearance at a particular moment on a recent day. The last two are more highly cropped versions of the first, to show even greater detail.

If you want to see some more images or bigger versions, this website contains three galleries holding abstract images of crows (blame the crows; they started this whole series):        https://bobeastaughimagery.zenfolio.com/p960766872

gulls:           https://bobeastaughimagery.zenfolio.com/p593004167

and eagles:  https://bobeastaughimagery.zenfolio.com/p693526578

Many thanks for taking a look at the blog posts and maybe the galleries.

Coming soon: a few sharper, high-resolution eagle and other bird images before completely changing subjects.

After a lifetime of mainly expressing myself with words, my postings here will mainly rely on images.  They will speak for themselves to some extent, but I'll usually add a few comments of explanation.  I've taken photographs for decades, since the 1950's, inspired in part by my father's photographic skill.  Four years of photo assignments and quality darkroom time eventually gave way to decades of casual and family picture-taking.  I re-immersed myself when I left film and turned to digital.
