    I just love the Pose colours and details. As Arash said head turn would have been good. Just a suggestion would a little off the bottom have been good?????

    Beautiful soft light and colours and a killer perch! Agree with Arash regarding the head turn. Won't mind seeing more room on the right to avoid the squarish crop. Would not crop off the bottom as the perch is way too nice.

    Lovely capture. I especially like the wet perch and how harsh and dark it is compared to the soft and lighter snowy. I am ok with the owl looking off. He is not looking away. He is obviously not threatened or even interested in your presence. I think it works well as is.

    A great photo of a great bird. I am almost envious of all of these great Snowy Owl photos. Here in Norway, they are very rare.

    Thanks for the nice comments.
    As I have said before, these were the easiest photos I have ever taken, once you made the trip and the hike out,
    You could not stage them better.
    Fantastic birds on great perches in scenery that just worked perfectly for photography.
