Such wonderful lighting and detail in this lovely flight shot, Ove.
 
lucky you, Ove, I had to drive about 400 km (from my sister in law's house in Belgium, i.e. another 850 km from where we live) to see the one I posted a while ago, and you had two within bicycle distance. Fantastic inflight photo of this beautiful owl, top class, many tfs!!
