Low flying Barn owl
Taken last weekend, I thought I was out in time to catch the owl but he came along just as I was putting down my equipment. I had to quickly drop down into low crouch and fire away. This was the best shot I could capture.

D300
300 f2.8 1.4 TC
f8
1/400sec

Regards

Must be very exciting getting flight shots, or any for that matter, of owls.

It looks a reasonable image to me for a snap shot. Quick reactions.
