I very nearly didn't bother taking this one as it was so early in the morning with no real light meaning very high ISO to have any chance of a decent shutter speed but as I usually do could not resist pressing the shutter on a hunting Barn Owl . I didn't realise at the time that the very first rays of the rising sun had just illuminated his face so I was pleased with this result.
