I took this photo on a freezing cold day at Jones Beach in New York.Time
This was taken at about 4:30 pm - about 15 minutes before sunsetLighting
The sky over the water was getting the pink tint from the sunset.Equipment
Used a Canon sx70 - hand held - zoomedInspiration
The snowy owl is only at Jones Beach for a couple of months during the winter and is very elusive. Ive been trying for 5 years to spot him and even though it was freezing cold it was well worth the hunt.Editing
Just lightened the photo a littleIn my camera bag

If there is something special you want to photograph dont give up. It sometimes is well worth the wait.
