Wauw Jerome, long time ago,
Very good capture of my favorite bird. Very good composing shot, and a good dof and an exelent pof, good colours too, great job

Isn't it incredible how these big owls can perch on such a tiny spot. Excelent capture.

Mike

Vraiment très bien Jérome. Superbe point de vue. Le fond bleu uni fait très bien ressortir cette magnifique chouette. Vous avez su tirer le maximum de votre appareil A70. Bravo!

Good shot Jerome, a lovely owl, well captured. I see the branches are cut, was this a wild capture or was it at a bird park, (it doesn't matter to me, it's still a good shot).
A longer note would have been nice.

Thats quite a balancing act. Since I first seen the Great gray owl on TN Iv been fascinated by this bird. You have captured him well Jerome. Well done.

Magnifique, Jérome. Grande netteté. Très belle composition. L'arrière-plan met le sujet en valeur et, par-dessus, vous êtes le premier à mon sens à pouvoir nous montrer les serres de cette chouette, ce qui est très rare car on les voit toujours perchées les pattes bien emmitouflées dans leur épais plumage. Félicitations!

Very nice shot, good sharpness.
Well done.
TFS.

Spectacular image of this most beautiful owl. You have done well to capture him with a nice blue sky. You were obviously able to get quite close with your A70, well done.

Way to go on the eyes! Nice sharp and well composed. Perfect no nits. Well done.

Wonderful shot Jerome,
He looks very Regal on his perch.
Excellent detail, and a lovely blue sky.
Thanks for posting

Dame plume à la recherche d'une proie ! bien haute perchée cette lapone, bon cadrage et couleurs vives.

Bien vu !

Superbement bien perchée, cette chouette semble vous connaître. Belle définition, j'aime bien voir comment elle tient en équilibre sur un bout de branche et ses yeux qui nous regarde font frissonner.

Good capture of the Owl. Good contrast and Composition .
