Snowy Owl - Flight Of The Phantom

This Snowy Owl presents an unusal display of colours and background side-lit about 20 minutes before sunset.

Certain photographers do not appreciate incomplete birds - in this case, part of the wings are clipped - but I don't mind in certain cases. Incomplete birds are sometimes called portraits :-)

Canon 7D with the 500L f4 lens handheld @ 1/800, f4, +2/3 exposure compensation, ISO 400, no crop.

Cheers,

Mike

Actually, this one is stronger as is vs being a full bird in my opinion. It is well balanced, and works as a composition. Plus, the viewer gets a closer look at the main focal point of the picture which is, afterall, the eye or "face" of the bird. Voted.
