Ok here is my rather embarrassing picture of the majestic Great Horned Owl. It may not be the best photograph but it took a lot of patience, listening, tracking and hiking through difficult terrain. It was quite an adventure actually...I will try to get better pics.

My advice, you don't always need to try and get better pics. You had a great moment with the bird, the image will always be better in your head. You saw it with your eyes, you heard it with your ears and found it after some searching. Like you said, it was an adventure. Congrats on accomplishing your mission. :)

Well that could be said of any photography. I'm not quite sure why you decided to post something like that in a photography forum lol.

Well, so much for appreciating the story behind your shot and being friendly.

I understand the sentiment behind your statement..it has a certain romantic notion. But photography, especially nature photography, is my passion. I can't stop and be content with my last outing any more than a motorcyclist can stop riding and be content with his last ride.
But thank you for appreciating my story. Sorry if I sounded like a jerk.

Nowhere in what I wrote did it say "stop". I only meant you had a great adventure and this photo should take you back to this moment.
I will never tell anyone to stop going out and enjoying the outdoors and seeing/photographing wildlife; providing they are respectful of the animals, the land (their homes) and always have more concern for the animals' well being over their own shots.
Apology accepted. Cheers!
