A long eared owl taking off; background is a little busy, but it was fun to see him fly a bit. Hope to go back as this is within an hour of where I live and they should be here another month.

Thanks for any feedback.

Hi Paul,

Those wonderful bright eyes are a real winner. The face is nicely sharp but obviously 1/800 sec was never going to freeze all the movement.

Busy background doesn't bother me - but I would like to see more of it. More space all round would work better for me.

Thanks for sharing,


Gerald
 
More space would work, I agree. You nailed the eyes - nice and sharp. I haven't photographed this species in years, always nice to see one.
