Looks good to me Karen, as already mentioned, the wing position and lighting look great, as does your composition, nice one.

At first, I was going to comment that I don't generally like Barn Owls in this wing position...

But, this image has so much going for it, the angle of flight, the intent look on the Owls face, the lighting, the detail, the background - I love it! :toast:

Oh - just sublime. I love the dangling feet. I might try placing him even higher and further right, near the edge of frame (the bird is so good it would be worth "breaking the rules").
