    My wife thinks Snowy Owls look like Cats with Wings. I have to agree!

    Owl was attracted with food.
    Removed an OOF perch.

    I can't resist posting this favorite image of mine from Jan trip in Ottawa with Daniel.

    Thank you for your comments.

    Another wow from me Loi... this is superb both technically and aesthetically. Detail is incredible from beak to tail, really cool wing position, and of course the eye contact couldn't be any better. Excellent work and a pleasure to view.

    This individual offered some spectacular take-off poses. You really succeeded with this one Loi with such an appealing image. I love the sheen on the feathers.

    Absolutely superb image with great IQ.
    Spectacular incoming pose with very nice exposure in whites and superfine details.
    Why all of you say "smile please", while photographing these beautiful owls !!
    Love the frame.

    Regards,
    Satish.
