I wish you a Happy 2009 as well my friend!
This well taken shot to take you into the New Year is very suitable with the pristine whiteness of the Snowy Owl against a fresh blue sky taken with excellent sharpness from a great POV.
Nice one Asbed!
I wish I could take shot like this of this magnificent owl that is very rare in Sweden.
TFS,

Top notch..does the 6000 as opposed my 1000 have motion helper? And how about lag time in shutter click? It appears much better than I can do with my 1000. I give you good credits for sharp image!

Hi Asbed,

A Healthy and Happy New Year to you and your family. This Snowy Owl perched atop the bare branch makes a fine messenger. I love the composition and the colors - the blue, black and white are wonderful. As nice as your picture is Omer did a great job in the workshop.

Thank you Asbed and I send good wishes back to you!. This is a lovely image to close out the year. I love the placement of the owl within the frame. Your camera did well here and you are SO lucky to be able to see these owls in person!!... and in the wild. I'm looking forward to your first posting of 2009!!

Asbed,

First off, thanks for your support and all the comments you left under my pics. They are greatly appreciated!
Secondly, if there was a place in Canada I'd like to move to it'd be somewhere around Montreal as it seems you have a great variety of birds in your back yard. Your selection of shots posted throughout is wonderful. It really shows whats out there in the back of your woods. Very nicely done.
Have a great New Year filled with many photo opportunities and a nice DSLR to go along with them :)

Best Regards,

Martin

hello Asbed

Snowy owl! Very rare to see this kind of color and really a good capture even though at the high end of branch.

Amazing soft white color of this bird compared to the blue sky. Great shot.

Hello Asbed !
What a nice picture to end this year ! I love this vivid blue sky, but also the unusual composition and POV. Most of the times, we see the Snowy Owl on the ground, not in the trees, it's nice, for a change. I also wish you a happy New Year, and I wish you all the best for this new year to come !
