Ghostly Hunter
An adult Barn Owl flying to the nest with prey caught in the last rays of evening sunlight taken on farmland. There is something about Barn Owls I just cannot put into words, they have always amazed me with their beauty and hunting skills.

F5.6, 1/500
ISO 2000,-0.7EV
Matrix
PP- Nikon Capture NX2, CS3, Levels, Curves, Saturation, Sharpening

Thanks for looking :wink: :smile:
