Hi Robert,
I am not loving this image. I think it is the same tonality of the colors that bothers me. I would like to see more space all around and a lower point of view.. The raised foot and feather are nice.

Lovely detail and IQ. Light s great and love the fact its playing with the feathers... I would maybe desat the yellow channel to remove a touch f the warm golden color. Very nice

Robert, Agree with Gail that more space is needed around. The color seems too unnatural to me, although the light might have been warm. You obviously know if it represents the real situation when you made the image.

All children need to play to learn. Love what you've captured here. Light is lovely and warm and the owl matches his surroundings for a reason. When I do a browser scroll, a trim from the top works for me. I don't feel all that room on the top adds much.

Lovely details on the bird . +1 on toning down the warm tones and space around the bird .

This is a darling pose and very nice feather details. I do agree with the helpful comments above.
