Wild owls are always well worth the effort and the long drive; nice image. The bottom LH side needs a wee bit more attention.

Worth the wait Craig, good light & action.

PS Think you need to revisit the bottom left again Craig, look to the right of your name

Very nice Craig, the prey and slight wing blur tops it! 4am , I am getting very lazy at the mo! Worth the effort!

Cheers,

I like this - theres a lovely sense of movement, but the lighting is just sublime - you dont get this without a lot of effort. Well done sir!

Hi Craig

Well worth your efforts - great lighting and carrying prey is a bonus!
