An Eagle Owl in Deep Thought (c)

The grey border at the base is the top of a fence rail, I used this on purpose to break up the image. To be honest the fence rail got in the way

Hi Vincent,

This one does'nt really work for me with the current composition. If you get rid of the fence rail at the bottom and use the measure tool to sit him up a bit ( as to me he looks awkward at the moment). Then I think the image would be a lot better. But he is one handsome looking bird.
