Owls are some of the forests' most regal, mysterious and graceful models for
wildlife photographers. These photos by Sompob Sasi-Smit, a
photographer in Bangkok, Thailand, show the many different faces of these ferocious, silent
hunters.
This type of photography can be especially challenging, since owls are known for their camouflage, but the dedicated artist has the ability to capture the enchanting huge eyes, extreme fluffiness, and lovely heart-shaped faces that make the owls the magnificent creatures that they are. Smith has taken photos of many different and unique species of owl, helping to show that there are close to 200 species of the gorgeous bird on Earth. They are separated by the categories of 'true owls' and 'barn owls,' with barn owls being known for their distinctly cute, heart-shaped facial appearance. |
