I almost missed this Short Eared Owl who was sitting on a pole by the road. I was so excited that stopped my car abruptly and that was a major mistake. The Owl gave me one quick look and was gone.
Luckily, it didn't flew far away and I got this shot. It's not what I was hoping to get but it's better than nothing.
I was replaying the situation with Owl over and over again for a few days. Being overly excited isn't very helpful. Staying calm is. You certainly can make better decisions.
LLevas razón hay que ser muy paciente para obtener buenas fotografías. Aunque esta tampoco desmerece.
