  1. Take lots of pictures. With digital they don't cost you anything.
  2. Move around as you photograph to experiment and give yourself plenty of choice.
  3. Stay alert for that chance-of-a-lifetime shot.
  4. In this picture, the golden eagle put its wing on the falconer for only a short time, and the falconer smiled for even less time!
