PHOTO OF THE WEEK - Jun 18, 2017 - "RANGELAND" - Great Gray Owl
"RANGELAND"
Great Gray Owl
(Foothills, Rocky Mountains, Alberta, Canada)
I have found that one of the greatest challenges and rewards in wildlife photography is to manage to capture birds and mammals in their natural environment but to have that setting slightly unusual or striking.
As identified on this website, photo layering is not used in any of its photography. This young Great Gray Owl had been stalking its prey from a nearby fence post when it changed positions and flew to sit on this old plow for a different perspective. With such a reward, all those hours of searching and waiting disappear and being in the moment is all that remains.
