Hi Gary,

There is a strong color cast in this image. Not a great looking Owl but you did well with the low angle and sharpens.

Thanks Maxis. My monitor needed some serious calibrating. Here's a repost.

You are right Gary, your monitor needs some serious calibration.... LOL :)
Re-pose works much better.

Repost is much, much better. That is one rough looking owl though... I find the OOF bright grasses in the BG distracting

really really like the....the bedraggled owl with the one piercing eye.
Very unusual, does peak a viewer's interest..........AND the sRGB looks super :)

Very cool pose, the facial expression made me laugh. :) The repost looks much better, the bird needs some more sharpening, especially the head.

I like the composition and your young friend. I like the facial expression...great repost...:)

Gary,

I always like seeing a different view of these guys other then standing on a perch. You did well and the repost is just right.

Re post looks very good !!!

Agree on the oof grass at the bottom, they do attract the eye. I like the fluff pose very much and find the side lighting effective. Excellent image !!!
