Just noticed you changed cameras and lens between these shots. He sat there and watched you do flash and everything....you had lot of fun with him friend.
So cool. so you went with the shorter D-70 lens you mean then?

Wow! Jim, what a great shot. Glad to see such a clear, sharp shot like this from your 20D and the 70-200mm L lens. Just this afternoon, I ordered the 70-200 L lens and the EF II 2x converter. I've only had my 20D for 3 weeks and have fallen in love with it.
Regards, Jimmy

Optimism and pessimism are two things we should disregard Jim. Just live in expectation of the unexpected. That's my philsophy anyhow. I've been so absorbed with your about - great write up and this pic is magnificent. Don't understand how you've only got 9 comments.

Such a great ball of feathers. They must be very small. That blue is great for the background. Another great work. Don.

Jim, First of all, Great catch! Great details. Excellent Photograph!
Isn't it strange how these things just seem to happen. I think it's what keeps me going with my photography. I'll hike or drive around for hours sometimes and then as if by magic there it is. And after the moment has passed and the film is exposed I get this feeling that what just happend came to be because I was there to shoot it. Like a gift. I caught a program on PBS the other day where an older Native American was talking about thier ritual of Vision Quest. I was amazed how what he had to say related to photography, Nature and wildlife photography especialy. If you go into the woods or up on the mountain to meet with a Mt. lion or a Bald Eagle or whatever you are going to see, If you have the patience it will happen.
I am not a very religious or spiritual person but whenever these things happen to me I allway get this feeling that it was intended to happen. I allways find myself saying, "Thank you." to myself, However, I'm not real sure whoo I am thanking.
So, I have to wonder if this little rare Owl had some knowledge of your quest and gave you this shot. Perhapes he even understood your lighting woes and moved to give you a better shot.
Or maybe you just got lucky...........?
Well done and thanks for your words on the Canada Geese photo.
