White-tailed eagle in Lofoten: a fine art wildlife print

A white-tailed eagle (sea eagle) drops to the surface and takes a fish with its talons. The wings are fully spread, the plumage glows golden brown, and the cold blue-grey water breaks around the strike.

I photographed this scene in February from a fishing boat that left Svolvær in the Lofoten islands, on the way to Trollfjord. Shooting from a moving boat on open water asks for a fast shutter, steady hands and good timing, because the eagle gives you only a second.

This image is available as a limited edition fine art print on museum-quality paper, shipped worldwide. It suits living rooms, offices, hotels and other spaces that call for calm and presence.

Every print you order goes through one of two trusted print partners — each with real strengths, so the right choice depends on where you live and what you're after.

Labkorner ships worldwide, making it the pick if you're outside Europe or want the widest possible framing options. Beyond canvas, aluminium and fine art paper, Labkorner's speciality is its wood shadow-gap frames — 12 finishes ranging from black and white satin to natural oak, walnut and bubinga, hand-assembled in their lab and built for large-format prints up to 180 x 120 cm. It's the choice when you want a specific, high-end framing look alongside the print itself.

WADM (Werk aan de Muur) prints and ships within Europe only, but brings a few things Labkorner doesn't offer. Their ArtFrame system lets you swap in a new print later without buying a new frame — order just the canvas ("wisseldoek") when you want to refresh what's on your wall. They also produce weather-resistant outdoor canvas, for pieces that live on a porch or in a garden room. Materials range from wallpaper murals and acrylic glass to aluminium dibond and framed photo prints, with delivery typically faster than intercontinental shipping.

In short:

  • Outside Europe, or want a specific wood-frame finish → Labkorner

  • In Europe, want to swap prints over time, or need weather-resistant outdoor art → WADM
