I saw this little one next to our house this morning. Run home for my camera and my light lens and I still found this fellow there.

Great find of this nice looking Owl and a nice image, Lorant. I love the stare and showing the claws.

Hi Lorant,
Beautiful clean look at this sweet owl.
I would be tempted to clone out the curvy branch and the pyramid shaped object above the birds right shoulder.

[Diane Miller]

Gorgeous catch!! Agree with Gail about the cloning. Also would consider burning the bright branch near the top. Nik Viveza does wonders for things like that.

Excellent image. Very nice composition, nice BG and pose of owl with beautiful expressions.

Regards,
Satish.

A fine little owl Lorant!
Nice eye contact, smooth BG and nice light too.
