Hi All,
Barney rewarded me with his Presence this morning, very early and Minus 2. He presented me with serious problems which I didn't think about until after he had gone. It was very bright and the light was coming over a tall hedge and he was lit up but flying with the shadowed hedge behind him.
I didn't think about the exposure, I needed at least 1 stop -EV, the Owl was over exposed on every shot, I was using Evaluative Metering ( which I usually do ) that was part of the problem, bearing in mind the bird is only a small part of the whole frame.
Anyway, enough of my excuses, here are a few results
