    Is this not digitally altered beyond regular post-processing? This is a single photo? I will actually die of envy. This photo is ridiculous.

      As far as I can tell, this is legit. Searching his name shows him as an action photographer turned wildlife photographer, with a good number of other pics tagged with his name.

      This one of 2 Shorties 1 Vole is also very impressive and I saw it on a few sites that all attribute it to him.

        That’s even worse. I could devote every waking moment to photography and still not catch something like that. Just incredible shots, I am in awe.

          We never know what life will bring us. It may not be double owls, but you have just as much chance to capture something great as anyone else!

    Sorry to pedant, isn’t it aerial? Arial reminds me of the Little Mermaid haha. And is also a font now that I looked it up.

    But the photo itself is great. Like catching ballet in flight.

      These owls are clearly sans serif.

      You are correct though! ☺️

    Damn. I wish there was a word that combined both the words “Arial” and “acrobatics”. It’s a shame the world will never get to experience this.

      Mr Kite would be a pretty good name for an owl actually!
