Very nice Karl.
I really like the side/back lighting as well.
I like the splayed wing and the slight amount of blur present.
The shadowing above the eye makes it look like the owl has eyebrows!

Another Great snowy.
It is really helpful to somone like me who is still leaning to see so many different ways of capturing the same subject. It really makes you think which ones you prefer and why. Love the nice clear view of the eyes on this one.
There should be a snowy owl of the week contest!

This is one of your best, Karl, and quite a bit different than all of the other snowies we've seen. Love the pose, that straight on stare and the side lighting. Interesting point brought up by Gail on the eyebrows.

[dankearl]

This is a bit different Karl, cool wing position and I like the snow at the bottom.

[John Robinson]

Another good one ! Like the way the wings fit in the frame.

Absolutely beautiful Karl,

[Bret Goddard]

My what large wings you have Grandma, lol. Not a spot off here, just beautiful.

[Jim Crosswell]

Great image Karl! I like the blurred wings, eyes, exposure and composition.

[Kim.K.K.Lam]

Wonderful capture...Well done.

[Jonathan Ashton]

Gorgeous image I like the composition and the pose - I like everything, my wife said "why can't you take shots like that!".

[Holger Leyrer]

Stunning !!! The fly pose and the eye contact are so great. Perfect.

[Troy Lim]

I am loving the side lighting, which we don't see often. It is a great shot!
