From Simon Dentremont
The story goes like this...I was lying in the mud (don't all good bird photography stories start this way?) taking pics of this owl when l realized that there was an amazing pink sunset behind me. So I relocated to a different angle, so could lie in the mud again, and get that beautiful pink sky as the background of my owl pic. Maybe my favorite owl pic this year. And yes, laundry when I got home. I also keep a towel in my SUV for just such an event.
