Just following on from my last entry...  taken in october and is full frame on my old D800 and Sigma 150-600 combo.   took a short cut as the best settings I've found are 1/500 plus and F8..  went with  1/100 F8 at iso 125.   sort of nearly there with my own critique but feel that my default was better..  ok to play...   

please feel free to click on the image to view uncompressed

Dave, very fine framing of the little owl within the rustic wood setting. A lot to enjoy in large view, particularly the detail. And the eye contact is killer. Excellent image!
