Canon 1dIII 700mm f6.3 1/1000 iso320 - A smidge off full frame due to rotation - Handheld (hence the rotation!)



Hi all

A cracking shot Simon. Love the early morning misty conditions and the way the soft light is just catching the owl's wing and face. :toast:

PS: Excellent images on your blog too, as always :toast:
