    Yes, very nice indeed. Great detail on the owl and looks almost 3D against that BG.

    Well done Jim

    Really great flying owl shot. Doug stole my thunder here. Looks great against that background. Love the spread wings and intense look in eyes. If mine and there were room I would probably center the bird and give equal distance above and below the wing tips.

    Lovely top side view Jim. Really stands out against that dark BG. Tack sharp with excellent details and a clear view of the yellow eye tops it off

    Super sharp with a killer dorsal view. EXP perfect. I am betting that you would have liked a more uniform background (as I would...)
