Fantastic sharpness around the eye but I have to wonder if the stick needed to be in the frame. A simple crop could have really kept the viewer's focus on the bird's gaze.
I love the expression. A beautiful picture. The branch is slightly distracting and the picture might be even more impactful without it; however, it did not affect the high score I gave you. Good luck in the challenge.
This is big birdy... wish it would turned cuz focus is on one eye...gives bit incomplete feeling...specially if other part is blured. But all other is well done.
The one eye is very well shot and very expressive, but I think that I'd have liked to see the other eye, too. I really like the sharpness of the owl's face are in this image.
Very good photograph! Great color contrast. I like the dof, focus on the eye. I would have liked to see both eyes, but owl's aren't real co-operative. Maybe you took this at a wild bird rehab place, and it had only one eye. Well done!
