15th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Potomac River Bald Eagle

The Potomac River in Romney, West Virginia is home to many Bald Eagles. The majestic bird has always been a symbol of freedom to me, and this particular Eagle is as regal as they come. The area of the Potomac River where this was taken is called the 'Trough', which is only accessible by train or boat.
