No way to treat a lady!

"Surely there is someone in this place who knows how to treat a lady!"

May 31, 2014 Apple Valley, California While I would like this photo better if all four Burrowing Owls were in focus, the expression on the one took me back to a black and white "B movie" where the bombshell demands better.

Nikon D800 Nikkor 600mm 1.4 TC 850mm RAW ISO500 1/3200 f/10 White Balance Auto Minimally processed and cropped in Lightroom, PSCC, NIK and TK.

Comments welcome and greatly appreciated. :toast:

Wonderful expression, Patrick, and you got the important character in sharp focus. Well done.

Excellent shot Patrick ! Love the lighting and the composition. It looks like 4 juveniles. The male and female look alike, so the one that you called a lady could be a man ! :smile:
