Hawk Owl

[Brandon Holden]

1D M2n, 600mm.. 95% of frame... baited

I was out shooting the other day, and it seemed like a lot of things didn't go my way, so I decided to post another Hawk Owl taken a few weeks ago...


All the best!

like this kind of composition a lot. just wishing a wee bit of space on top & to the left of the frame (just a little more).

I like it Brandon! The eyes make this image for me, so bright, sharp and intense. I think a little off the right (loose the little branch) and bottom (and maybe clone out the other little branch) would make it still stronger. A pretty image!

Hey Brandon,

Love the pose, light and perch. I would clone out the very last branch to the right of the frame.

[Fabs Forns]

Great placement on subject if a little tight, I would also get rid of the little branch.

Very beautiful image, congratulations!

I like this composition a lot Brandon showing good lighting and detail. Yes the needle-like projection below the tail is a bit distracting IMO. Well done!!!

[Krijn Trimbos]

I also echo the comment about getting rid of the branch on the right. A bit more headturn towards the camera would have made this even better IMO. Otherwise excellent that perch is to die for!!!

Great image of this little beaut Brandon, love the pose and perch. Agree with other suggestions, re cloning and space.
