Attachment 124500
This is the fourth of the nine GGOw's encountered that day at north of our city. It was somewhat cooperative and was interested in our bait, but didn't take it. I used a zoom lens with a shorter focal length so that I can include more of the environment while the owl is in flight.
Canon EOS 5D2 | Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS @ 200mm
Manual mode, 1/1000 sec., f/7.1, ISO 800
All C&Cs welcome!
Thanks,
Raymond
Good thinking to go with the 70-200. I like what you have done with with your composition here and where you placed the GOOD in the frame. Your image tells a good story!
The motion in the wings is a great add to this sweet image. Love the eye contact.
Nice image , the bird looks focused on to something making it interesting
Great image overall. I wonder if you need the bottom starting at the tree level? Wondering if the IQ can take a tighter crop. Well done with good light and good eye contact.
Nice high keyeffect and pose. I like the included vegetation. I only wish the tail feathers were all cmpletely showing even on both sides
Nice head on flight shot, Raymund. I like the eye contact and the dangling feet.
Great shot.
I really like your choice of comp.
Love the dangling talons and wing position.
Well done.
Thanks everyone!
The trees might not do much, but I prefer to show some perspective where the owl is in mid-air. That's my purpose using a 70-200 lens.Quote:

Great separation from the BG, Raymond. I like the vertical crop. Fine job.
