Fantastic capture :toast: :toast:

Tho it may need a small crop off the right, to help with the comp ?.

Fantastic owl shot. Comp works well imho. It doesn't need to be centered all the time. Just play with it. Great job.

Very nice but i agree with Alan with regards to the crop. An off centred image always works better in my view

Anthony,

Wow, great image. I really like the colour on BO's upper wings.

Usually I would crop to make off center, but works well as it is.
