Description
Barred owls are actually not really considered 'quiet' due to a very distinctive hoot/call consisting of 8 notes that sound like 'who cooks for you, who cooks for you'...but this girl was so very calm and quiet during a birds of prey exhibit, 'Quiet One' seemed an appropriate title.
The choice of sepia was to enhance the calmness of this beautiful owl. I've also used some subtle texture layering to add more dimension to the background and an intentional softness to the overall image.
