Hi Rafa,

Well spotted shot, I think I would have missed him as he is well camouflaged, the composition is lovely, great colours too.

TFS Hilary :o)

I love this shot. It is almost monochromatic. Very nice.

I'm not sure if this was how it was perched, but the photo looks a little off center line to me. I downloaded it and rotated it about 8 degrees to the right and it appeared more natural to me. I also brought down the levels a little just to bring it out more. I have posted the results in the workshop.

That's a beautiful shot of the Scops Owl! I like the way he is the same colour as the branch and camouflaged amongst the leaves. Great focus on the bird showing feather pattern and bright eyes. Excellent!

Muy buenas Rafa,
Un gran toma la de este maestro del camuflaje, mira que es difícil ver a los Autillos y más sacarlos una foto. Bueno por lo menos para mi.
Un saludo
Jorge

Hola Rafa,
Me gusta todo de esta foto: el color, la nitidez, la pose, la composición, la luz, el fondo y -más que nada- la igualdad de textura y color del palo y del autillo. Va directa a fovoritos y buscaré un jersey igual.
Un envío notable que marca una gran reentrada en el ciberespacio.
