Barn owl

By jaymark1
I was very lucky to get this image; it had been very dull for most of the day, the barn owl was hunting at the bottom of the field, then it worked its way up towards me, the sun came out and I was able to get a few shots, before it was gone.

Excellent shot John. If I had a shot half as good I would be `chuffed`. I personally do not think `luck` comes into it ! You obviously know where and when to go, and have the skills to get the shot. Top notch stuff, well done.

Super in-flight image.
Like the diagonal composition and the subject stands out well from the background.
