Special Limited Fine Art Photography Print White Ghost with an edition of only 25.
White Ghost is the result of luck, preparation and patience.It all came together during a dense snow storm
In late fall snowy owls leave the Arctic and move south where they spend the winter. I spent a week in Quebec at a place where snowy owls had been seen earlier. I was very fortunate that the young male owl was still in the area when I arrived. It was used to people as the area was covered with small farms. One day I was extremely lucky when a snowstorm caused whiteout conditions and the owl came flying towards me like a ghost. The only color in the picture, the yellow eyes, stand in stark contrast to the monochrome surrounding. A surreal moment!
The snowy owl is a large, powerful owl of the high Arctic tundra, colored for camouflage during northern winters. In summer it may be nomadic, concentrating and nesting where there are high populations of the small rodents called lemmings. At other times it takes a wide variety of prey, including birds as big as geese. During some winters, large numbers of Snowy Owls appear south of the Canadian border;
The Special Limited Fine Art Photography Print White Ghost has a limited edition of only 25. Most other fine art photographers have a much higher limited edition number. The lower the number the higher is the value of the print.
