Winter is slow for photography here, especially with the cold we've had... but I managed to get out and take photos of my bird after a snow fall
Not an easy task to be holding the camera with the big lens and holding the arm out calling the hawk

Hello... and... uh...unfuckingbeliveble !

It loses a bit knowing how it's done but still a very good shot.
Kind of dislike the flat background, could use some nature enviroment.

I disagree, flat background is pretty cool.

I'd have to photoshop some background then... there was nothing but snow
I must have taken about 50 photos and called her up over 10 times, and only got a couple in focus shots... The fact I'm so proud of this photo is probably because she's my own bird and she was coming to me
That is seriously the best feeling ever!!!



Thank you and hello again!!!



Thanks

wow... great shot Marie

Thank you!!

now that you mention it, we had a music video shoot last weekend and had all sorts of animals over, like a leopard, scorpions, snakes and an eagle:

stop stilling Marie thunder !

Its a cool hawk.

But I might go blind looking at the photo
