Aujourd'hui, je vous le présente se reposant sous une belle lumière de fin d'après-midi. Seule dans le champ, j'ai pu prendre plusieurs photos sans le déranger avant qu'il ne s'envole!

Bonjour Lise!

Tu nous présentes une image d'une rare beauté et tendresse. L'unité dans les tons des couleurs est superbe, tout est bleuté et feutré, sauf les incroyables yeux...

Excellente prise de vue!

Those are incredible eyes Lise. That's what hit me when I first opened this shot. I like the lighting on this bird, and on the snow giving you some nice shadow detail and great textures. The colour on the bird is quite good with all of the subtle shades transitioning from the black and white on his head to the dark brown and white and finally the light brown and white on his chest. Plumage detail is very good.

Thanks, John

Hello Lise,

Great image and great composition!

Very beautiful snowy owl image Lise.
Composition, sharpness, exposure and clarity are excellent.
Light and the way the white and brownish feathers of the owl do stand out against the light blue color tones of the snow.
A real joy to look at. TFS!!!
