Very nice shots, Jody. For me the last owl, #12, is special and reminds me of an Inuit art piece.

All of these are gorgeous, Jody. #7 is my favorite - love the low angle and BG. Must be awesome to see these guys. Thanks for sharing.

nice job on number 7. with the owl coming right at you, i'd think it'd be hard to keep focus but it's tack sharp


You are right, the hardest thing a camera struggles with is to focus on something coming right towards it. Gotta give Canon credit for a great focus system!

Thanks!

Jody, this is a wonderful set, they are all great. The one with the owl chasing the mouse is very cool. But something just seems to be not quite right ... the owls seem to have shrunk in size and are now eating rodents instead of being big enough to attack your friend Bill! What's up with that?!

Chris


These Owls are not on steroids. Thank you Chris!

Some amazing shots Mr. Melanson! #12 is definitely my favorite, love that full wing spread! 3, 4, 6, 7 and 9 are second choice favorites, great work.

Doug


Why thank you Mr. Bentlage! I appreciate your kind words.

Jody, these are excellent captures, lots of action and superbly controlled exposures, very well processed too. Poor mice!

No 14 is a work of art!

Jody,
Not being much good at birds, i am truly stunned both by the pictures and the technical skill that must be required. Loved looking through them, the snowy owl is a beautiful fierce creature.

So Jody,

Do you ever mess up? Stunning as usual.

If I could only get remotely (like 1/100th) as good I'd be thrilled.

Lil


Oh yeah Lil, I mess up all the time! That's why I wear depends!

Thanks!

Fantastic stuff as is the norm coming from you. The intense look and focus in the birds eyes is amazing. Nothing gets past these guys.

Tim


Thank you Tim. Yes, in my experience with all birds, not much slips their eyesight!
