In early December, the tamarack trees in northern Minnesota have turned a dull orange. This creates quite a backdrop when the late day sun adds a short-lived splash of saturation. And it’s even better when great grey owls hunt in the foreground. Nikon D500 with Nikkor 500mm PF lens, ISO 800, f/5.6 at 1/2500th of a second.

F yeah dull orange.
Beyond splendid, Sean!
Thanks Sue. A very short window when the sun was hitting the background.
That’s a dyno photo, Sean!
Beyond words. Superb shot.
Just fabulous!! The sun reflecting off his eye mimics the dusky orange background. The serendipity of the perfect capture.
