Happy New Year All!
I started this year with an encounter with a owl we don't typically get here in New England. I have a number of images of this individual, but this one seems to have the strongest impact to me. I have done some retouching work to remove or tone down some OOF branches that made the original feel a bit too cluttered. I left the one on the right because it didn't bother me too much - any other or opposing opinions on this? And of course, any other thoughts, comments, and constructive critiques are most welcome!!
