Challenge:Bored (Basic Editing III) Camera:Nikon D100 Location: Lake Erie Metro State Park, Michigan Date: Mar 19, 2005 Aperture: 5.6 ISO: 200 Shutter: 1/40 Date Uploaded: Mar 22, 2005
The shot is very good, but maybe a little too sharp, the edge contrast (From USM???) is very prevailent alont the tail and some of the branches. Also, the owl looks like he concentraiting on something, as opposed to bored.
Whoa! Two great horned owls in one challenge! (Your's is better.) Nicely limited DOF, good detail in the feathers, classic pose! Bored? He looks pretty keen, to me...
nice pic - but does an owl ever get "bored"? Not the most obvious connection with boredom (though a refreshing change). Birds always seem that bit "aloof" to me. Except for pelicans - who can resist their gullet beaked smile?
