    I like this one better Dennis. The flight pose is awesome. Well done. If I were being picky. I would remove the yellow grass touching the tail.

    You've knocking these owl images out of the park! The last couple of ones have a good colour cast too compared the ones from before. Good stuff.

    Looking better all the time. The wing position is awesoem and you have ggod eye contact. Are you standing, kneeling, or lying flat on the ground? Try different perspective and see which one works best. Good luck. Loi

    Dennis better again that higher shutter speed helps colours great, pose, background superb. F4 seems like a good choice DOF seems ideal resulting in a nicely muted background.

    Great flight shot, with perfect wing position. Nice light, good sharp focus. Perspective and comp work nicely for me. Other than the possible removal of a few blades of oof grass, no nits from me.

    If it were looking at you it would have been epic, I guess you will just have to settle for killer! Nice and sharp and I like the pose and the BG colors. One of your better images of these guys!

    It would make a nice sense of community to post comments on a handful of other images each time you post. Thanks for your participation.

    No doubt your best so far. Love that wing spread but wish for a tad more eye contact. If at first you don't succeed.

    Ditto what David suggested about commenting on more images. You learn more that way too!
