Snowy Owl

[Nicolas Frève]

From yesterday.

D3, 500mm VR, handheld, 1/2500s., f/7.1, ISO 500



Thanks for looking! :)

Great pose, details and I also like the 'suspicious' look. The inclusion of the surface at the bottom is a nice touch.

Love those great eyes.
Details and sharpness are wonderful. The inclusion of the mountains on the lower part of the frame does not work for my personal taste, (I like a solid color in this case) but I know that it gives balance to your composition (that's the one that counts at the end!) Great job, thanks for sharing.

I like the angle of flight, and the owl pops so nicely in this. Congrats on a superb image.

Hi Nicolas, I like the sharpness and lighting, I too would have preferred to just see one colour in the sky without the bottom blur/mountains? Were you using bait for the shot?

[Colin Knight]

Outstanding shot! Thanks so much for sharing. Snowy Owls are always a wonderful sight to see.
