Default Old Owl.

Shot this old bird over a year ago, it always seamed off to me so today I went back and fixed it.

What is it Coldplay say;
When you try your best but you don't succeed, when you get what you want but not what you need
Lights will guide you home, and ignite your bones and I will try to fix you


The time was right to fix the owl, good job Paul

Love the shot, wish I'd seen the original to compare, but a great owl shot. TFS

thanks Steve, nice words. I met the band at work, very nice guys and they tipped $100. That shot seam to haunt me along with the big horn sheep shot.
