    Different and interesting image ... love the environment and the touch of color at the top.
    Comp-wise, I like the positioning of the bird vertically but I think I'd prefer it a bit more to the right in the frame if possible.

    A very nice environmental portrait of this splendid owl. I like the composition but as Mike M. said above, it would look better a little to the right, since the owl is looking to his right (left side of image). I think the blue band at top is just slightly distracting (although not much) and if it were mine, might crop that off the top. Otherwise, stellar image!

    I really like the mood of this shot and view of it's habitat.
    Really like the pose too.
    To me there is just to much empty space on top.
    I would crop about half the space and some to the right.
    Well done.

    Nice pose and environment. I agree there is too much on top as well. At the very minimum I would take the blue off the top. Nice one.

    A very nice environmental version of a se'd owl. I also like the blue at top and would have preferred owl a bit more right in the frame.
    Nice job in adding some contrast to the owl to make it pop off the bg. I also like the cool, blue color throughout the photo. It adds to an early morning or late in the day feel.
    I did not know se'd owls lived in India.
