Location
This photo was taken in The Czech Republic with this beautiful owl which is in human careTime
Picture is taken in the early afternoon in autumn, deeper in the forest with nice autumn colors.Lighting
Ural owl is one of the most beautiful owls and I wanted to have a fairytale kind of picture with nice surroundings and bokeh, using the autumn day light and colors.Equipment
Canon 5dmIII, 400 mm 2,8f - no flash, no tripodInspiration
The inspiration is the owl itself - it's very beautiful and looks just like from a fairytale. It's one of my most favorite birds.Editing
Not much post-processing done, balancing the white, the shadows and lights.In my camera bag
As always when taking pictures I take with me, my camera, lenses from 16-35 up to 400mm, additional baterries and memory cardsFeedback
The timing is very important - the autumn weather is a bit challenging.
