    I wish I had stopped down a bit as the lower owl's face is a little soft, but I still like this one.

    Nice one Ian! It looks like focus was on the feet / log contact area because both faces are a little soft. Still a keeper just to remember the cute scene!

    I really like this. Challenges me as a viewer, makes my eyes move back and forth to absorb the scene. My interpretation, the flying owl shows the action while the tack-sharp eye of the little guy on the right seems to tell the story yet directs attention back to the action of the first owl. That's just me, but very nice none the less!

    You really can't beat the comp here.... I actually like the "soft" look to it! Great capture, Ian.
