Look out for the bokeh (240KB, folks :-)

That's a beautiful shot Kostas.
Thanks Don. I really like owls as well. I should get my act together
and support it in our zoo.
Shame about the Bokeh, makes it look like the owl was
positioned in front of a painting of grass. ;-)
Certainly seperated the subject though.
I have not taken many pictures with that lens (as I have said in the
past, although the FL looks ideal for my kind of things, the minimum
focusing distance is very long). When I took that picture I was very
near/touching the wire that keeps the owl in our zoo, so the bokeh may
be affected. But I also saw quickly the "water cloud" pictures of one
of the previous posters (Portuguese? Brazilian?) and again the bokeh
looked suspect.
