Great Horned Owls

[Paul Kammen]

Hi all,
Looking for some critique on these images of a great horned owl family. I recently purchased a used Canon 800mm lens, and moved over to Canon, so am trying to get the hang of things. Spot metering on a tripod, Canon 70D and 800. Thanks so much. - Paul Kammen

I like the eye contact and the view of the nest! nice high key exp. owl is a bit big in the frame I would consider putting more room around him

Sharp on the adult's eye and cute. But you clipped Momma's tail as noted in part by Arash....

[Paul Kammen]

Thanks for that. Fortunately this is cropped just a bit, so I can go back to the RAW file and get mama's tail in there. Unrelated this is from the lens that was suggested to me on the birdsasart blog, the Canon 800. I think it will serve me well.

Nice eye contact.

YAW. We look forward the seeing a wider repost. The 800 is a great lens. I hope that you used my affiliate link....
