My son is 2 and he LOVES owls. Β He was born 2 months early and has some major delays but one of his first words was Owl and he loves them. He saw this picture, broke into a huge grin and yelled OWL Β Thank you for bringing a smile to his face!

Awesome as usual!! love how u manage to get such clarity! did u crop down the source image or?

Thank you so much ^^
I don't believe in cropping really. All of my shots are as they came out of the camera
I think that's down to my lens. It's an amazingly sharp piece of glass

TheAudioCheetah In reply to Chikrata [2011-07-22 00:54:22 +0000 UTC]

Thats impressive!! I always try to get my shots like that aswell, but not having a rule of third grid in the viewfinder I just have to guess!

Yeah its really sharp!

Chikrata In reply to TheAudioCheetah [2011-07-22 02:09:22 +0000 UTC]

Thanks ^^
Yeah. I don't like those viewfinders personally. I prefer framing what I think works, even though it doesn't a lot of the time xD
I must take two or three frames of each subject to be sure I have a nice angle

Still got a lot to work on though, which is nice. It's not as fun unless you have something to work for!

It really is. It's as sharp as the Β£1,000+ 70-200mm F2.8 professional lens Nikon make, and only cost Β£125 too
