Barn owl profile

[grumpybadger]

Another from Scotland. This time a falconer's bird. Not to everyone's taste I'm sure but I was looking for something a bit different and I spotted the owl was catching a lovely golden ray of light and popped round to try the profile.

EOS-1Ds MkII, EF500 f/4L IS, tripod, gimbal

Thanks for looking

Good spot and catch Paul - nice feather detail and tone.

Thanks both

That would have been a really super image but for the white fuzzy foreground Paul... :shrug: ... but great detail in the subject with glorious lighting...

Thanks Ven. The foreground is snow so not a great deal I could do about it. I personally like it but that's just me. Thanks for the feedback.
