Yes more from Lone Pine...

Her name is Larnie and she is a Barn Owl (Tyto alba)... a very pretty barn owl at that!

Wow, those are some really great shots

The clarity and DOF are superb. Would this be the 70-200 on the end?

Great shots # 3 i think is awsome well captured

Cheers Cobby

warren aka aussichef

NO 2 & 3 FOR ME
Great shots

#3 is an exceptional shot. beautifully done.

Thanks for the compliments, much appreciated.
My favorite is image #1 I might have this one enlarged.

No 1 and 3 for me. These are so clear. They are also inspirational.

Well done.

Really nice exposures and great use of the small depth of field. You must be very happy with the 40D. Where these shot with HP on?

HP on? I'll take a guess and say Highlight Tone Priority?

No just standard Av with partial metering ISO 400 f2.8 2500th/sec

While I am happy with the 40D's image quality, its ergonomics make it a delight to use, doesn't suffer from button clutter, and the menu system is easy to navigate. Though that’s only half the story, the real kudos must go the brilliant EF200mm f2.8L II Sharp wide open, very good contrast, lovely bokeh, fast focusing, all in a small light weight package.
