Little Owl

[Andreas Liedmann]

Hi folks .. went back through my LO images from last year
Image does show one of the Owlets of last year , loved this one just because of the posing . The pose is caused by the worms placed in a plastic container ... the Owlet was going to jump into the container .
Funny enough I was not able to " train " them to come to the container to get a quick meal themself .... it would have been a great shooting option . It happened only once that one of them hopped to the container to feed on the offered food resource .
I had to clone out the container to make this somewhat appealing
DOF is falling bit short

Super quirky pose exposure and details spot on. No signs obvious regarding removal of container. Buttercups in the background look good making for a natural looking scene.

I like this one Andreas. What a great pose. Nice detail on the bird and the HA is spot on for the image. Lovely colours on the BG.
