Hollow Greeting


Photograph by Karthik Vilwanathan, National Geographic Your Shot

An owl peers from a tree hollow in Northumberland, United Kingdom. After unlucky weather derailed a trip to see puffins on the Farne Islands, Your Shot member Karthik Vilwanathan drove with a friend around a nearby woodland area, hoping to see birds of prey. “This time we were lucky,” he writes. “I saw this little owl pop its head out a few times from the tree, so I waited patiently, and 20 minutes later I captured this image.”

I like the way it's looking sideways, that expressive face, the way it blends with the background. Just a marvelous photo.
