Photograph Notes: With this picture, everything
went right as we caught a timed sequence of the eagle just as it took
off from the top of this tree.
Click here to see a composite photo
of the sequence. The first picture in the series was taken while the eagle was at
rest at the top of one of the trees that they perched on. Just seconds later, the eagle took off. The next series of three pictures of
this eagle flying were taken approximately .25 seconds apart so they spanned
only about 1/2 second from start to finish. The first two pictures are pixel for
pixel what I got from my camera. The last picture shows how far
the eagle had flown in relation to the original tree that it was perched on. (June of
2002.)
In order to show the complete sequence
of this eagle in flight, I created a
composite image of all four of
these photos of this eagle taking off. Each of the eagle images in this composite picture is placed exactly where it was in
relation to the tree with the original picture series.
