Snowy Owl
Originally uploaded by kevinbolton56

Hello all.

Now that the New Year is upon us, my resolution list is small but to the point.
#1 I will get in more hours of Photography within a day.
#2 Be more patient and no melt downs when my capture takes off before releasing the shutter! #$*@#
#3 If I take 300 captures I will make a goal to have at least 100 to be keepers.
#4 Stop shooting on extreme overcast days and work on better Sun angles

Short and Sweet!

My Grail Bird to Digiscope in the Raptor world would be the Snowy Owl , here in Jersey they seem to be popping up every were!
This capture was taken at DeKorte park in the Hackensack Meadowlands ,I was just happy to get a decent capture of one.

Though a little closer would have been nice I cant complain JESUS ITS A SNOWY OWL!!!!

Happy New year.
Kevin

Some complaint. I wish my attempts at a snowy owl were half as good.

Then again, I was just happy that I saw one.

Yes

Im sorry about my rants on distance
thats my pet/peeve I should be grateful for just observing one.

No apologies necessary. It was a slightly sarcastic attempt to say that I thought you got a nice capture on the bird.

I like the blog and didn't mean to sound harsh.

No problem,

Jesus it's a really GREAT shot of a Snowy Owl!!! :D

I clicked on it and was treated to your Flickr site. OMG what a treat, indeed. You are an AMAZING digiscoper and I am glad I consulted you regarding the Nikon P5100 vs. P6000. The 6000 just came today and I can't wait to test drive it....although my photos are nowhere near the quality of yours.
