Affronting Winter's First Light - Snowy Owl


Well, what can I say?! You just had to be there at 06:13 on a bitter cold winter's morning to catch something like this. No halancing for whites here, which in some bird photography circles would be anathema :-)

Canon 40D with 100-400L lens @ 1/1250, f5.6, ISO 400, + 1/3, at 400mm lens focal length.
Cropped for composition and horizon straightened.

Cheers,

Mike
