Len,

Rarely do you ever see them with their beak fully open. Neat.

Jim
Enjoy viewing

Beautiful shot, Len. That open beak is amazing. A bottom crop to the junction of belly and wing would make the composition stronger.

The exposure, open beak and dark bg make this one for me ...
Excellent shot, Len! :roll:

Hey Buddy,

Way to go, sharp as a tack and perfectly exposed!

Sandy's crop recommendation would make this fine image even better.

Best,

Chas

Len,

Very cool shot. I like how the owl looks against the dark background. The exposure couldn't be better.
