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.
