Good capture Michael, he really has his eyes on you. I would darken the background a bit, would make him stand out even more. Posted: 07/15/2025 18:45:19
A well caught image, showing full detail of this stunning bird. I wouldn't lighten the background, but I would soften the lighter areas. Posted: 07/17/2025 10:30:54
Great shot Micheal. Tack sharp with great color. Background is good. Overall a great shot. Posted: 07/17/2025 19:57:21
Super image Micheal. Like what Mike Cowdrey did to soften and blend the background. Like the way you offset the Great Gray Owl to the right slightly. Posted: 07/17/2025 22:58:38
A beautiful bird. Great capture. The owl is looking right at you. I like what Mike did to get rid of the white background areas. Well done. Posted: 07/20/2025 20:16:29
Didn't see this earlier. I've never seen the Great Gray...what a stupendous bird. I like your crop, focus, DOF, the whole lot. I do agree softening the background takes out some of the too light patches. Nice capture. You didn't mention if you found this bird in the wild or not. Posted: 07/24/2025 16:53:40
