Spotted Owlet

[Anand Madabhushi]

I sighted a tree with a borough and two owlets yesterday. Shot at ISO 6400 due to bad light. Was very unhappy with noise. Today set up the tripod and cable release. Both the owlets welcomed me. Shot 40 images in Jpeg before I realised and shifted to RAW. This is Jpeg. They continued to be there for 20 minutes, eternity in photo language. Eye level. 8-10 feet.

Aperture-Priority AE: Tv 0.6; Av `11; ISO 500; Focal Length 400 mm. This was shot in Jpeg by mistake.

Nice image Anandji. The claws look very nice and so are the eyes. There is a p&s feel to this image. Thanks for sharing.

Wow nice to sight it so close and at eye level. Beautiful eyes. Good you got an opportunity to photograph them at length. Nicely captured. Thanks for sharing.
