Winner: “Morning Nap” By Amy Ames
“A barred owl sat sleeping in my neighbor’s yard for several hours on a quiet morning,” explains Ames. “He went in and out of a nap as I sat quietly for a few hours and waited for the perfect lighting.”
This image was taken in Holly Springs, North Carolina.
NIKON Z 7. Exposure: 1/200 sec., f/5.6, ISO 1600.
