Artist's Comments

These birds are amazing. Completely silent. This one flew about 6 inches about my head.
This image has been cropped and (slightly) photoshopped just to remove some unwanted background stuff (trees, tops of people's heads, etc.).

EDIT: There is a cleaned up version of this image, with far less grain. It is called Barn Owl "Cleaned Up", and is in my gallery. Please go and have a look at it, as it is far better!

Too bad the quality is so bad... The photo itself is very good though. You captured the motion very good, and at the perfect moment, when his wings were totally at the upright position.

This reminds me of a scene in Labyrinth! These owls are so beautiful. Great shot :clap:

Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is energy condensed to a slow vibration. That we are all one consciousness experiencing it subjectively. That there is no such thing as death and life is just a dream. Here's Tom with the weather.

This is absoloutly a very lucky capture, did you know that in some parts of the world having an owl fly over your head is luck, but in some parts it's cursed. You were very lucky with this shot but I do recommend a few things so you can improove the quality as well. The shot is just way too grainy, whihc is actually not your fault but the camera's. there are a couple of programs that you can use to make it better, there is the one I use: Neat Image You can download it for free for a limited time. I

f you do please note me so I can see the finished version

Thankyou for the comment!
The picture was taken with my Olympus OM10 35mm camera, and then scanned in. I think I set the scanner up wrong, so it came out all grainy :(
I'll have a play around with Neat Image. Thankyou for the link! It it works as well as it claims to, it'll be the solution to the problem!
