[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A young little owl was showing me his wings, as a matter of fact this is a common action for the youngsters from my observations I saw that they are usually stretching their wings, maybe they are trying to get used to the wings... :)

Full description you can find in my former post Little Owl.

Elroyie,

Hello Elroyie
Interesting shot with this little owl holding up his wings. It's like he's trying to appear larger. Nice detail and colours. The owls feathers are similar to the colour of the rocks he's standing on, blending in well to his surroundings. TFS Janice

Hi Elroyie
Welcome back stranger...it's been more than a 1˝ months since the last posting.

Oooooh, what a lovely shot! It is a magnificent capture of this youngster trying out those wings in preparation of the wonderful day when it will take to the sky for the first time.
I just love this beautiful composition, the colours are splendid, the details are tack sharp, the BG (as always with your photos) are superb, and the exposure was perfect especially considering the fact that there was no direct light on the bird.
Excellent work and TFS.
Regards
Loot

Lovely. I like the almost monochrome style.
Sharp and proper DOF. TFS.

Elroyie,

Great pic you managed to capture here! I like the Sharpness, detail of the bird, POV, Composition, BG and DOF. Very good pic indeed! TFS,
Sheriff

Hello Elroyie,

All done with a proficient result photo wise... DOF spot on, great clarity in colours and very fine details in the feather coat!
Point of view adds dynamics...
