Location
This photo was taken at a wild bird sanctuary in Florida. All the birds there are injured in one way or other and unable to be released back into the wild. The people working there are dedicated to caring to the wildlife in their care.Time
Probably in the mid morning.Lighting
It was a bright day, but we worked around it, sometimes under a canvas tent.Equipment
Nikon D-300, Tamron 18-200 Lens, tripodInspiration
I was fascinated by his eyes. Owl eyes are so mysterious and beautiful. I was able to get up close and Manuel focus for sharpness on these eyes.Editing
Just the usual, a bit if clarity, sharpening.In my camera bag

Focus on what interests you in the scene. In this case, it was the eyes if the owls, so I went in closer to make that the focal point of my image.
