Awesome capture. Love the owl in flight. Pretty colors. #2778573Graham Jones May 24, 2006
Thank you all for the wonderful comments. As mentioned in the description this has been PS'ed to remove the birds handler and remove focus from the background. Sandy has wondered out aloud about the original image so I'll drop it in here to satisfy her curiosity :-)regards, Graham #2807831
