    For a night image this is very nicely done. The only branch that bugs me is the small one on the right. That could go with a bit of work if you so choose.

    SH, EXP, pose and head angle are all loverly.

    May we assume that you eliminated the red-eye?
    You comments on the flash do not make sense: "Full flash 580 EX & Flash setting +1.0.

    If you were truly at full flash (Manual flash mode at 1:1) then you could not have had the flash at +1. (You need to be in ETTL to do that.)

    Ditto Artie on the little branch. Looks like there might have been work done on various parts of the BG. I also wouldn't mind seeing the image larger.

    Keep them coming.

    Owls are my fave! This is an exceptional image. Well done capturing at night. :) I like the inclusion of habitat.
