Wonderful- you must have quick reflexes to have caught this one. Impressive hand-holding as well. Excellent composition and detail! Be sure to click on this one.

This is a top-notch image, Ludo. The framing, with the diagonal line of the wings, is excellent, and so is the eye contact. The habitat is very attractive and serves as a wonderful setting for this image. Congrats on a fine image.

Very dramatic this frame. I like in special the BG mixed with the owl.
