Another Snowy photo from my files of several years ago.

Taken with my Canon 5D Mark III handheld with the fantastic 500L f4 lens.

It appears that the Snowy Owl had a strand of dried vegetation caught in her feathers.

The afternoon light was beginning to turn the scene warm, but for this one, I decided to cool it off a bit. It was not late enough for a real golden light.

If I took the photo late in the afternoon with a real golden glow, I would have left it that way.

As I've mentioned before, I ceased bird photography at that time because it was too difficult and painful due to multiple knee surgeries, and of course, age :-)

This pile of rocks bears the name Dom's Rock as a callout to my good friend Dominic (Dom) who first spotted the owl using it as a perch at the time.

Apart from bird photography, Dom is also an avid astronomy photographer.

Salut, Dom.
