Edwin, I like your composition, and the larger photo is great, very clean and with good detail.

Hi Edwin,
I love the smooth gradient in the BG,
your composition and the mellow light.

Snow looks like snow,compositionally very good.The little details can add so much like that back talon coming over the back of the post. As you may be aware many of the early introductions of little owls made to Britain were sourced from Holland so its very fitting you should be visiting them and recording their long vacation here with us. Need to add the bird looks spot on and loaded with delicate detail. :toast:
