Tawny Owl At Sunset (C)
Evening everyone, this image of a Tawny Owl was taken last August, during what must have been one of our only nice evenings at sundown. It was taken at the Barn Owl Centre, amongst some fine company. I hope you like it, please feel free to comment, as it's much appreciated!
Regards,
Paul. :wavey:

Canon 50D, Sigma 150-500mm lens.

f5.6, 1/25sec, ISO 400, @288mm.

Love the light in this one Paul. It has the appearance of being a little soft in the face though. The rim light around the shot adds to the image aswell. :toast:

Great shot, love that light in the background :biggrin:

If one is to post a captive image imho it needs to be perfect, just like this.

Nice portrait, might be better to lose the orange blobs at the top though :toast:
