Oh man..you are having whole kinds of fun with this owl. Amazing details. One thing I noticed that Great-horned Owls I see here are way darker.

What a beauty! Everything works so well here with that intent look and the angle of the wings. Terrific flight shot!

Very well done, good light and exposure is spot on. Shadows are well handled, too.

Karl, Well done. I've not had any luck getting this close to a GHO.

Nice subject to get to photo at close range....
Real nice look at the full wind span and a nice head turn.
