Art-it's a personal thing but the steep angle really takes aways from this image. The eyes looking down help a bit but the body is so distorted from the angle that it just doesn't look right. I sympathasize - these gorgeous owls don;t like to stay at eye level to hunt.
Great find and eye contact. A lower angle would have been great, but you probably would need a longer lens to be able to back up a few steps. I might sharpen the eyes a bit more. This species is still pretty high up on my wish list.
Northern Hawk Owl
