Really like the action and the light. Like how the owl on the right is frozen in mid-air.

[Fabs Forns]

Pretty cool action, very well captured. You getting there ;)

Thank you Dan.

Thank you Fab.

Great shot! Would crop off the top to make it a more standard horizontal and to emphasize the impression of the jump.

[Tony Whitehead]

Very sweet. Agree with Ofer's crop suggestion to place the jumper higher in the frame. Cropping even more from the right and below is also an option to really focus in on the action.

[Adrian David]

Nice action you captured here! I like the warm light, very much!

[arash_hazeghi]

cute jump and nice details, captured the moment, very well done. Agree with less room on the top

[thijs broekkamp]

Very funny picture with awesome light!

[Myer Bornstein]

Great capture sharp nice light and agree with the cropps

[Glenda Simmons]

Too cute! Great timing and light. The owl watching the show, certainly does not appear impressed by it's siblings circus act. lol

[Mike Tracy]

Good job with the technicals. I have been documenting young eagles in nests for research for 6 years. If you can get a "jumper" with the wings spread it adds to the appeal.

Nice job, I hope you will share with us their development.

Troy, priceless moment captured!! congratulations. I also think a little crop from top and right will make it better. These sort of images are a little confusing(for me at least) when it comes to cropping. But I always get good advice here.

[Kurt Bowman]

Very nice behavior you captured here. Love it!

Thanks for the suggestion, Ofer.

Mike,

Looks like by next weekend, they will prob start to fly. I can't wait, will go back Thurs and Sat again.

I agree Kaustubh. Originally I was cropping towards the left, then move to this one. I will try again.

I laughed when I saw this. What a funny shot. I absolutely love this. This is so cute!
Great light and perfect timing.

Is this a Great Horned Owl?

Troy, your photography is improving by leaps and bounds and you did well to capture this jump! Lucky you weren't chimping (checking out your histogram of a previous picture) when the jump happened! I agree that you may wish to play with your crops, but either way, congrats!

[Troy Lim]

Here is the crop after taking all your suggestions.

Marina,

Thank you. Yeah you are right, almost too far right.
I am going there again with someone you know later this week.

This is priceless and I really wish it were mine!

Super action, great interaction with the onlooking owlet on the left.

Love the light.
