Another Barn Owl

Hi all

Returned to my barn owl site this evening to try my luck. Had thirty seconds with this lady(?). Not bad for a three hour stint!


Canon 1dmkIII 500mm f7.1 @ 1/640 iso200


Simon

Well worth it though !
Good stuff.

Lovely pose and composition. Works well.

Hi Simon,

Very nice. Yep, it's a female, spots on the flanks and buff orange on the chest. Lovely lighting and composition.

Great shot

Regards

Rob

very nice image, a bit bright for me but then that's just taste

Super shot Simon. As Jack has noted, I think it might stand a little less light in the bright areas, but a cracker all the same.
Eric

Nice one, good pose, agree that in this instance perhaps a slight drop in the levels...

Very nice, great pose and lighting. I'd agree that its a little light, but thats easily sorted! Nice perch and background too!!

Wonderful shot.. I hope to get some time over the next couple of weeks to get out to my local site too. I am first hoping to see where they are quartering as I have only ever seen them perching on posts late at night and at nest, but would love to get something remotely like this... Excellent work, nit mentioned otherwise I love the pose, light and good use of DOF. Thanks for sharing..

Nits covered, and those aside, an excelllent image. I have yet to get any images of these in the wild, so well done and lucky you!
