A snowy owl touches down onto a fence post during a snow squall.

Was very lucky to have spotted this girl on this very cold winters morning. Very active in a very small field at the end of a dead end road.

Beautiful yellow eyes. Did you know Owls eyes don't move? This is why they have such neck movement.

Avery active Snowy Owl hunting from a fence post in a back yard.

A day full of snow squalls and one hit just before this beautiful Snowy Owl came in for a landing.

I have a huge passion for these beautiful raptors.

Downey Woodpecker taken at the local Eco Park here in Stayner.

My first ever Baltimore Oriole sighting, boy did I luck out. I had just jumped in my truck and stopped for a minute and it landed right in front of me

This girl had other things on her mind than just hunting. I learned to look in the direction wildlife is taking an interest in, she was keeping an eye

Snowy owl hones in on it's prey and takes off to enjoys it meal.

This squirrel talked me into giving it some peanuts. Chilly out when this was taken and got quite a bit of snow as well.

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was captured at Sunset Speedway near Barrie, Ontario, Canada.

Time

I believe it was taken in during the evening hours.

Lighting

Bit of an overcast day and decided to go with black and white as these are vintage hot rods.

Equipment

Canon 60D, Sigma 150-600 mm C lens.

Inspiration

I have a great passion for Stock Car Racing, I used to race until my back issues put driving on the back burner. I took up photography to stay involved in a way. Lots of friends due to this sport.

Editing

Yes I did, through lightroom I had made a preset that gave this image a classic yet gritty black and white finish.

In my camera bag

2 Yongnuo Speedlights, Yongnuo Controler, extra batteries, cleaning cloths, Canon 18-120 mm, 50 mm, 70-300 mm lenses, compass, flashlight, card reader, cables, memory cards, aaa batteries.

Feedback

Practice panning while hand holding your camera, things happen quickly so you always need to be on your toes. Track lighting at night poses big issues at most of our tracks here in Ontario so choose your spots where the lights are bright. Also the sunlight ducking in and out of the clouds keeps you adjusting your settings to compensate.
