Wow! This is awesome Alan. The best incoming owl shot I have ever seen. Perfect wing position, eye contact, detail, and it has a mouse in it's feet that is in a perfect position too. Your set up shots are fantastic.
This would make a great print.

I guess I'm not the only one wondering how the hell did you make this amazing photo trap. Absolute brilliance.

Definitely nailed the timing and positioning of the flashes and camera. Excellent wing spread.

I wonder if it ticks off the owl to get flashed like that.
