Snowies of 2008.. . Final Series.

Hi All,

The winter of 2008 was a fantastic year for Snowy owl photography! Owls are now starting to migrate back to their breeding grounds thus slowly bringing an end to the season.

Here's a few to finish up the season.

Thanks!

Marc

You surely did had a ball of a time shooting these beauties !

Couldn't ask for better shots! Congrats on making the best of your opportunity.

Very nice, love those yellow eyes, every time I see them. Very nice exposure.

Wow...these shots are fantastic. Amazing work as always Marc.

I'd love to know how you got them so close . Those talons remind me of the time a Snowy pounced on me from behind a couple of years ago. I had to get a tetanus shot as his claws punctured the back of my head and neck. Ouch !
I was part of a group that was re-habiliting 4 birds , and the adult male didn't like my camera . Man can they ever pack a punch too ! Those little voles and mice don't stand a chance . They would die on impact.

Amazing shots of those claws, Marc. Terrific job.

Some great pictures and my wife and myself may do the workshop next year. We were thinking about contacting you this year 2 weeks ago. We are in the Detroit are for Michigan, so not to far of a drive.

More amazing shots of one of the coolest looking owls around. Wish I lived closer and could take that workshop. Would love to see these guy's in the wild.

superb series

Amazing series Marc...

Best of Luck with Your Workshops on this Species Next Year...

You should add your new website link to your signature...

Great light and details in these images Mark and lots of character in the 3rd shot. Excellent!

Good luck with the workshops next Winter. I have witnessed first hand your expertise and approach with this species and I think you know these birds better than anyone else.

stunning shots of this beauty.

Wonderful captures Marc, love the intensity and those talons are sharp in every way.

There is one thing though on my monitor the whites appear over exposed. And I know this can't be the case because your standards are very high. I'm assuming my monitor needs adjustment. Is anyone else having difficulty with the whites?
