Hi everybody.
I planned to make such a shot... 4 years ago. It has been very difficult as I had to put my camera in a very dangerous position, 8 meters above the ground, suspended in a self made photographing trap.
Last year, the conditions were awful and I didn't get any cool shot. The year before, it was even worse...
This year, I spent all my time photographing the scoop owls as it was on top of my to photography list When the chicks left the nest, I only had 2 days before that the last barn owl from this nest leave too. So the picture is not the best as I had to make it under a rush. Still better than nothing... and giving me good hopes for the future.
So :
5D MkII + Samyang 85mm 1.4
4 flashes : One over the bird, one next to the camera, one to light the wall and one for the background.
Enjoy
