 Shot of a Malayan Fishing Owl at the Jurong Bird Park in Singapore. Shot hand-held w/o any fill flash. Post Processed using CS3.
Had a real tough time deciding on the color version or the B/W version. Both had their merits & weaknesses. In the end decided to play it safe & settled for the colored version, pls prove me right. Hope everyone likes the shot.

well done on being able to get so close adn get such detail into this shot. It is just so sharpened though that it looses the impact that you wanted to go for

It looks like it's about to pop out of the picture. A bit over sharpen to my taste but I still love the details and the color. Good job!

Great shot, amazing, I might suggest turning down the contrast and saturation though to make it more realistic.
