Birds of Prey

[Craig]

I was commissioned at the beginning of June by Peterborough Councils marketing wing to shoot my local festival...
This is two of MANY images I sent them.

It was absolutely lashing it down, which was a real shame as for weeks before and after the event it was HOT and sunny.

I have to admit that it was great fun, takes me right back to when I was the photographer for the Peterborough Showground.

I really like the owl, Craig.  Shame about those white posts though - perhaps worth a "dob with the dobber"?

[Craig]

Yeah I know... I thought that too..
But when shooting the images it was lashing it down... and I mean like a real storm complete with hail...
If I remember right I ducked for cover when I took these so it was a case of shooting where I could for an hour...

But you are dead right, I should get the Dobber out and remove those pesky white poles.

Did someone mention dobbin' out? I love dobbin' out, me!

I agree, the owl shot is great. Those eyes are brilliant.

Nothing quite like a good ol' Dobbing Kork

Some nice shots Craig, the first one looks like it's mantling.

[Craig]

Thank you Rye,
Yes it does, doesn't it?
It was having a little shower I think in the rain.

[Kobione]

Lovely shots Craig - don't owls have spectacular eyes, and the first one does look as if he is enjoying the rain.
