Barn owl and Young
Really scraping the barrel archives now ! One I raked out for a friend recently thought you may like to see. Done in the far off days of flash- frowned upon now of course . We had no other choice. Taken in 1974
on Ecktachrome 200 !!
Copied in home made slide copier on D7100
Two metz 402 heads in one unit.
F16 30th sec.
Hide tripod etc.
Trouble was you couldn't see anything so you only took a shot when you could hear a faint click as the bird landed. very hit and miss to say the least. I did try a red filtered light with Tawny owls but it dodn't seem to work very well.
Hope you enjoy it. I have to appologise for the image IQ.!
Cheers
