Shot this evening. I stopped by after work to see how are owls doing.
I found mommy deep in the woods with no direct shot, so I tried to go around to get better angle, owl was not there. So I went back and owl was there again, she was playing with me ,but still no clean shot, so I decided to get on little hill right in front of the owl. I didn't expect the owl to let me get this close, right in her face. She didn't care at all. I took tons of shots in portrait and landscape mode in different focal lengths. This is where zoom lens pays off. This shot has zero crop @ 360mm. I used flash since light was almost gone. I decided to include as much ambient light as possible to use background behind the owl so I used slow shutter to allow more ambient light and using flash for filling the light. If I would shoot higher shutter speed and higher ISO the BG would be almost black and I didn't want that in this shot. Sometimes I prefer black BG. D2Hs, 200-500mm f/5.6 1/30, ISO-1000, f/5.6, @360mm, handheld, VR-ON, SB-800 flash (-1.33 Flash compensation) with Better Beamer. Please click on the image for uncompressed view, thank you.
