I just took another look at the "washed out" eagle sky. That is exactly the sky I recall and still have no urge to darken it. Bluebird sky is often nice and I could have darkened this one obviously, but I actually like the contrast of the Eagle against the sky. Am grateful for any comments you offer, Ann and thank you for them. :-)
