• Story of the image

  The nesting area of this owl is located next to my house. That evening I came to visit the owl.She was sitting low in a pine tree and watching her chicks.I installed a tripod and a 600 mm lens, but for a long time nothing interesting happened, because the owl was in the shade and looked directly at me or in front of him. But at one point, the owl was illuminated by a ray of the setting sun and she turned her head 180 degrees towards the flying hawk. I managed to make this portrait
