    I just loved the sweetness and simplicity of this moment with the owls napping. The other owlet was hidden underneath the mother. I felt lucky to have witnessed and captured this moment.

    Canon 1D3, Canon 500 & 2.0TC
    F11, 1/250sec, ISO 800, manual mode
    Flash - but don't remember settings
    Feisol tripod, Jobu head

    C & C most welcomed and much appreciated.

    Yes, Troy, this was backlit. I can't remember my flash settings but I just added it to my exif above. I spent a lot of time experimenting between ETTL high speed sync and manual flash on this particular day.

    Hi Marina, a tender moment indeed, and I like the colours on the owl. Good use of flash - looks subtle.

    This is so sweet and tender.
    Love how she is leaning against the tree with her ear pushed forward by the tree.
    IQ is great as well and I love the red in the tree,
    Gail
