The left one was looking back when the other started stretching,so I have stacked another shot with the image to get the left owlet hooting and looking straight at me...

Thanks for looking,your inputs welcome.

A cool pair Debapratim. Love the BG! That would be a great BG to print for hummingbird setups

You have done the composite very well to join the two images Debapratim, and I admire your honesty in explaining what you did. The end result is a fine image!

Debapratim, excellent composite with both birds in marvelous poses, your disclosure is appreciated. Beautiful BG that makes your subjects pop with wonderful clarity.

Very adorable frame.
left half bird and BG is awesome, right half subject is terrific, but BG has some work done artifacts visible.
Honestly overall experiment is very nice.

Thanks for the disclosure. I'm kind of reluctant about those types of changes in an image but that's a personal decision. Having said that I think the right owl would make a wonderful vertical image all on its own. Nice one
