Thanks Mark your encouraging feedback is appreciated ☺ Mary

Comment from Envision
Boo does certainly look friendly and somewhat curious. I really like the close up view and the fine definition and texture of his face. Looks like he might be tethered to the branch. I like how you cropped the majority of that out of the shot.

a nice picture of the owl,
as the color in it is great as it looks like it may be a light snow as I see white specks on it's head and wings. nice job. but would have liked to see the whole picture. thank you for showing.

A very nice closeup of this great looking barn owl. The soft light gives you fine detail and beautiful colors. I might have framed it as a vertical unless there were prominent jesses.

Thanks for your positive feedback framing was dependent on trying to keep the keeper out of shot as owl was on her arm ☺

Comment from GaliaG
nice capture of the owl face and eyes, but his are cut off legs and the bright spots on the background distracts and takes from the initial impact


thanks for sharing

Comment from Joelgraphuchin
A beautiful capture of owl. I love his design and brown domination color. Your focus on his shining eyes is nice. Close up framing is smart to present this portrait of owl.

Well done and thanks for sharing.
