This is the same Snowy Owl I posted on February 26. In this view, we can see a few brown freckles and lines.
The light was very harsh, and almost directly on him, hence the squint.

Seemingly absorbed in distant thought, a mature gent keeps a close clutch on his afternoon latte in Chicago's Chinatown neighborhood.

Another shot from the Bluebell Wood at Kinclaven. I liked the contrast of the brighter greens and purples against the darker tree trunks.
I do wonder if this would be better as a square crop cutting off a bit more of the top and bottom rather than the 4x5.

Thought id jump back to a blustery day back on Rattray Head Beach. Reprocessed from a previously posted pic with a slightly softer PP feel and a square crop. I think this works slightly better that the original post. The lighthouse is dead centre... but it looks like its to the left of the image slightly... clearly an optical illusion!?! Is it just me... i do have a slight squint so i wonder if its the effect of a dominant eye?!
A couple different thoughts come to mind while looking at this shot. All of them provoked by the eye squint. Is he squinting to lower the amount of light his eye lets in, so he can see further into a dark space? Or is it a safety habit in case something were to jump out? Or could it be a squint of intense precision to not break away the bark from his highly engineered food source? Hmmmmm?

Here's one I found in the file-pile.
I saw this funny little beast while doing a hike near Mt. Baker a couple summers ago.
first shot only grabbed his front half, but it was pretty sharp, sadly this is the best I can offer. I guess I can hope to see him again someday under better circumstances, hope he wasn't just passing through...
There is a lot to dislike for many people during Minnesota winters. As you get older and more vulnerable, walking on snowy and icy parking lots can quickly become a life-changing event.
But there are some positive aspects as well as illustrated by the surreal foggy landscape interrupted by two dots of eagles high on a tree squinting for unfortunate prey scurrying across the snow below.

I found it amusing how this nice butterfly seemed to be staring at me ... I just had to "portray" it
I have wanted to get this location for such a long time after seeing images from the likes of Trevor Cotton and Spencer Brown and an opportunity arose over the weekend that I couldn't turn down, high tide at sunset!!
I arrived on location only to struggle finding the entry point for the forshore this gem sits on, 10 minutes later and some local hash heads gave the game away, after being told it was a 5 - 10 minute walk by the above mention weed smokers I arrive 32 minutes later......with the sun setting behind a bank of cloud.......gutted, so what was a promising bit of light and I end up on a recce!
I still really struggle with LE's at this time of day due to the ever changing light! Give me a grey day and I'm good, but sunrise or sunset and I start to have issues!
Anyway, after a fair bit of time sat at the PC, this is the end result from that recce and to be fair, Im fairly pleased with it! I would love feedback from the people that know this location as I feel there are issues with my editing!
360 Seconds of LE goodness here!
One of the original buildings at the Britannia Shipyard.... peering back at me.
