This little chap is a Boobook Owl, not one I was familiar with until yesterday. I hope you like him.

Hi Jason, I've only just acquired the 150-500; first impressions are that it is a superb lens. Not only is it sharp, but the colours are great and the out of focus areas are lovely and smooth too. All round, a recommended lens if you ever get the opportunity to buy one!I like him! Looks like you gave him a blow dry and set prior to taking the photo. Looks great in black and white and the sun on the right makes it a great portrait, rather like a window portrait. I'd love a 150-500

Hi,
great, and it would be like if you dropped the tripod 10 cm? Her eye, it would be better expressed? My humble opinion!

Hi Velimir, I think you are correct, but unfortunately this was not possible as I had to shoot over the top of a fence! I was as low as I could possibly get and also could not include more of the owl's lower half in the shot as what it was standing on was really distracting and would have spoiled the shot. I hope that explains!Hi,
