This is a fantastic photo eagle. I don't profess to have captured such a good photo of an eagle, but I certainly took a photo of an eagle flying right over Moon's house, where they do occasionally. Rather than title it "Where eagles fly" I would say "Where eagles sing", because that is what Moon says they do over her islands :) Since this experience of seeing an eagle fly above me is part of my A journey to the Moon, part 3 :) I will post it there - I hope you don't mind ;)

Where eagles fly.

That is fine. The eagle you saw was an immature Fish Eagle. Got the info from an expert that I know, who has studied eagles all over the world.

Here is a photo for the steel beam to replace the buildings at the World Trade Center. The steel for the World Trade Center was made here in my town and so is the replacement steel for the new tower signed by the residents of my town before it was shipped to NYC. So my name and my wife's name is part of the new tower to replace the World Trade Center.

Nice pics Paul! Black & White photography gives the world a slant on picture-taking that digital can never give. Your use of Tri-X was nothing short of amazing. I got rather good at processing my own B&W & often "push-processed" my Tri-X to ASA 1600 & even 3200 with excellent results. For low-light situations, I'd push Tri-X to ASA 1000, with next to no grain. Amazing film! What camera did you use? Mine was either a Canon FTb or a Canon AE1. The AE1 is long since dead, but the FTb is still smoking!

I wish I could find my pictures, but my house has long-since swallowed them.

I wish I could find my pictures, but my house has long-since swallowed them.

My first camera was a k-mart generic 35mm SLR very similar to a Pentax.
I bought it when I was a lad and saved my paper route money to buy it and I had my own dark room at 1967. I would buy film in bulk rolls of 100ft and load my own canisters. I would buy Vietnam surplus materials from the army. I had that camera for 20 years or more it was completely manual no auto nothing. No batteries except for the meter and I replaced it once. I then bought an auto exposure Pentax 35mm SLR and I like the camera except for the auto exposure and I bought 3 lenses for it a 50mm a 28mm and a 135mm Pentax lenses. I love Pentax it is a small camera and I have small hands so it suites me good. I still have the camera and a large assortment of filters for special effects. I bought an Olympus 8mp SLR digital with a zoom and it is completely automatic and I bought a Nikon 35mm SLR and it is completely automatic but I love my Pentax! My second love is the Olympus and then the Nikon. I don't like all the automatic stuff I guess I learned when the automatic weren't out it was all manual even with no meters I could get the exposure right.
I too have lost all my old work I had some really great stuff it has been around somewhere for 40 years now so I guess I will find it somewhere.
The Serpent Mound and the Orb are digital and the rest are film and paper. I really like the Kodak recording film it is amazing I could push it to madness and I have shot infrared black and white and color and I lost all my infrared work. I use to work in my art school darkroom for work-study in the evenings and I would help the students in the lab. I worked as an artist for Wave Rider/ Skate Boarder Magazine in Fl in the 1970's.
