Description Majestic Owl.

Strix nebulosa - Great Grey Owl.
This photo was taken on the 13th of April, 2013.

This is one of the two Great Grey Owls that they have at the zoo and this one is always near
the fence. These owls are almost always watching what I am doing and they have this really
piercing look in their eyes, but they are so beautiful!

Location: Nordens Ark, Sweden.
Camera: Canon EOS 60D.
Lens: Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L USM.

Wow, it is great! I wish there was maybe a bit more space in the left to make the composition less centred, but I would never ever crop the branches, they look so pretty! 

By the way, the lens must be great, isn't it? I want to get one for my birthday but I guess this one would be too expensive so I have to keep looking for a different one.

I wanted it to be more space there as well, but the fence came in the picture then and it kind of ruined everything. I agree, the branches looks so pretty and I didn't want to crop them out, haha  
It is my fav lens, I seriously love it and it's really worth the money. But as you said, it's too expensive and this is the second cheapest when it comes to Canon's original 70-200mm D:

Yes, it seems to be a great one, ideed. I will try to start earning money this year so that I could afford a new lens myself but I still have to idea what I want for my birthday.

You got nice shot in. Can't wait to be able to get a new camera. That branch to the right if I was to try to take that shot it would tend to focus in on the nearest object. Though I've learned to kinda work around in some cases.

Thank you  
Well, it often depends on where your focus point is and I tend to change mine a lot. I'm also very used to focus on one specific thing when I'm taking photos

That helps a lot. When get the money to I plan on getting the Canon Rebel/EOS. Be a huge upgrade to what I have and allow me to focus a lot better on what I'm taking photo's of
