Burrowing Owl Triplets

[Steve Canuel]

Created last year, this was from a group of 8. Last bit of light, it came out pretty noisey hence the heavy-handed NR. Maybe too much for this forum? I liked the BG and FG elements and the stoic poses. 20D, 1-400L @ 400mm, f11, 1/8s, ISO 1600, tripod, MLU, cable release. Comments always welcome.

This is quite nice Steve. I like the angle and the similar poses on the owls and you did great with the dof.

Great image, I like the composition, setting and details. It could go a tad brighter for my taste.

This is a remarkable image. I like everything about it. What a treat to see them all together and get them all in focus. Lovely soft background and lighting.

[Fabs Forns]

Absolutely priceless!!!
And on top of that, it has a beautiful painterly look. Agree it could go a little brighter, but maybe it wouldn't look better.

it is obvious that you've put a lot of effort to achieve this result, both before and after the image was taken! Very impressive result!
