‘Bald Eagle: Fish-eye View’

DaveJ 15 Aug 2023

The last thing the fish may have seen while it was trying to take in and process its predicament and possible imminent demise. So what was the fish thinking? ‘Bald Eagle: Fish-eye View’ was painted in oils on a 30x30cm mfd panel from a photo that Mark from ‘Mark Smith Photography’ has kindly given me permission to paint. The photo was taken a millisecond before the fish became an addition to the eagle’s dinner. This was a challenging and enjoyable painting to do and well worth the effort.

Really awesome! Love the angle of the Eagle!

Great job. Love those talons and eyes.

I can only imagine what the fish was thinking as I'd probably get banned from this site if I wrote it 😳😂😂 really nice painting 👍

Thank you for your lovely compliment Sandy. The hunter must have been making last minute flight path changes to get best angle of attack. Cheers

Thanks Daddio for your great compliment. Everything about this hunter was focused on success.

Thanks Kevin, I appreciate your great compliment. Yes, exactly my thoughts on what the poor fish was thinking. We wouldn't want to give Felix extra work to do, would we? Cheers

This is amazing!

Thank you for your compliment Laura, much appreciated, cheers

Very good work!

Thanks Tom, much appreciated, cheers

Beautiful work! So challenging to get feathers / fur to look "right". You pulled it off wonderfully.

Thank you Roy very much for your great compliments, I really appreciate them. Cheers

He looks pretty intent on getting some food! you really captured the expression and the texture of the fur and feathers really comes out. Really nice work.

Thank you for your great compliments John, much appreciated, cheers

I feel like I’m the fish. Absolutely fantastic!

Thank you Laura, much appreciated, cheers
