Snowy Owl

​I took these pictures of a #snowyowl this week. They were done ethically and without chasing this rapture. I arrived (at 6:30am and in my winter camouflage) to a location where I suspected the snowy owls might be. There were two of them but I only spent time with one as I saw the other fly off far away. One stayed within my sight for 5 hours and I saw it hunt and catch voles, but it mostly sat and rested which is what they need to do to preserve their energy. I positioned myself three different times in the five hours that I spent in the wind and in the freezing cold. Each time my photographing distance was greater than a football field length. At around 4:30 hours of watching and waiting this snowy owl flew to me and rested only about 35feet away. After a few quick shots I gently walked away and left.
Putting in my time, it's the only way to do it right...

SnowDay --- I don't really do much with black and white photography but I do like it. I generally will go almost black and white, adjusting a color I want to pop slightly. These domestic geese in snow were already there, black/white naturally.
