    This image was taken just a few minutes before the sun dropped tonight. These are my first owl images and was pleased to get anything. Not sure about the crop on this one.

    Gorgeous light and subject. Agree that a bit could come off top and bottom, and I'd be tempted to remove the tip of vegetation which is touching the birds belly. Great work...they're very cool birds!

    Beautiful light and a perfect BG. I would only add some blacks to the neutrals on the bird's body, it looks a little bit washed out as presented.

    A really cute pose and the bg is lovely. The light is just gorgeous. The burrow area is very attractive, and the green plant adds interest and color. I would get rid of the small plant branch that touches the birds belly and would crop from the bottom at a point that would eliminate the oof green. Very nice capture!

    Terrific light and BG, pose and details are outstasnding, I might crop a bit from the bottom and from the right so to de center the bird, but overall, it looks simply beautifull! Congratulations!

    Sweet light and great subject to photograph! My only recommendation would be to crop a bit more on the bottom.
