    #2 is the most arresting for me - beautiful image.
    I like #1 - I wonder if you might get more "impact" if you cropped some on left and right?
    I never tire looking at owls - thanks for sharing.
    My opinion does not necessarily make it true. What you do with my opinion is entirely up to you.

    Very nice captures thumb.gif

    Tough to find owls around my way, keep hoping though.

    Thanks Everyone
    I have gotten a few owls before this but they were incidental this is a place were you can go looking for them and find them.
    One trick is to look down for Owl pellets that they expell when they roost then start looking up and follow the poop
