Cynthia Crawford wrote: Another great shot- I like how the owl stands out against the BG. Nice perch too. I like the previous one just a bit more-, but they are both pretty magical.

The falling snow, and the snow on the background branches, certainly makes for a fine setting. Excellent perch, here, as well. The eye contact is certainly a high light, as it is for most birds of prey, photography, I would say. The R1, is working out so well for your images, from those posted here recently, on Naturescapes, but I would say that the skill of the photographer, may be the most decisive factor, in fine images, such as yours.
