Burrowing Owl under the rain
Inspired by the more experience members decided to shoot on less than ideal light conditions. I am not ready to get my gear wet yet, so I worked from inside my car.
This is huge crop, but there is some details and I like the face expression once the rain and lighting started.
C/C appreciated,
Raul

One of my favorite photos of yours Raul! Love the mood, the pose, the foreground, the BG, and of course the rain! I guess that covers everything. I might crop a little off the bottom and the top, but I really like it!
Raul,
I agree with most of what Doug said.
However, I like the crop.
IMO you need the room above the Owl to really get the feel of the rain, falling from above.
For my taste, If you leave the top the way it is and crop the bottom, the balance would be off.

Ever so sweet, Raul, I also like the crop as presented. I think the rain adds to pictures, so anytime I can, I go for it!
Raul,
This is an amazing image. For a huge crop you can't really tell it. Excellent job on the crop too. I think it adds to the image.
The rain is a lovely touch.

I am in total love with this, the evocative mood; the feel of the rain and the purple shadows makes this live. I agree with James, don't change the crop.
love it as presented - excellent.
:)
also one of my favorites of yours, raul!!! fantastic capture!! love the mood!! great job.
Excellent, rain creates color and mood making this an extraordinary photograph. The contrast of the green ans the dark sky makes this. Way to stick it out in the rain, Congrats
