Hi Gail, I just knew this would pop up here. Well, so much more clarity and sharpness on this Hi -res image, and just love the light cast on the face. You couldn't have captured a better flying pose with the full downstroke of the wings. Your BG is not too shabby either. Congrats on this fine capture.

Gail:
An outstanding shot of one of the most beautiful of birds. Perfect downstroke pose, warm light, details.
A once in a life time opportunity, that you hit out of the park.
Congrats

You really made sure to nail this one-off opportunity. I love the perfectly parallel flight path. Great light too.

Oh man!!, I mean chick!! What a killer capture Gail. I have always loved the color on the back of barn owls and you caught it perfectly. Everything looks fantastic, especially for the shutter speed. As you know, the only thing that could have made this any better would have been a little head turn.
Guess you will have to settle for a 9.9 instead of a 10
Great effort from you lately and it's paying off, big time!

Hi Arash,
Yes, you are correct re: whites on face being hot. The TIFF and RAW are fine so I must have done something when I converted to JPEG. Have reworked it and new JPEG looks great. Thanks,
Gail
