In regards to the Photograph
“I had set out on an early winter morning with a picture in my head. That is a picture I’ve needed for fairly a while. Everyone knows nature may be unpredictable and it requires numerous quiet persistence to get ‘that shot’. First impediment was finding a really small owl. Think about in search of a ‘feathery tennis ball’ in a big clear minimize. Wearing camouflage clothes and tucking myself into the fallen branches on the forest flooring, I patiently waited. There’s a sense of pleasure when the owl lands proper on the tree high in entrance of you and the backdrop is ideal. Breathe… click on click on, alter the settings and click on once more. It has taken 4 years to get what I name ‘The Tree Topper’ shot.” – Sara King
