One of the chicks from last year - very much a work in progress as we've put one of Vinnie's boxes up for them this year so fingers crossed the adults use it.
Taken from my 4x4, resting on the door.
MKIV, 500 f4, 1/2500, iso 1600
(I've cropped some canvas from the left and added a little to the RHS)
superb flight shot and well executed from a door as a rest since you do not have the movement of a tripod head. Looking at the large image it looks as though the point of focus could be on the edge of the wing nearest the camera as the rest of the bird is a little soft. That said the leading line of the post wire gives the shot another dimension.
Another good owl job Graham. Can't make my mind up about the wire and fastener though
Mine have returned to the old nest site this year so I may get some stuff,
