Re: Barn Owl
I don't think there's much wrong here actually Ray!
The owl is looking into the picture: good! The sharpness is on the owl: Good!  There are no blown white feathers: Good (and hard!) Most owl shots are head on due to their great eyes, which are lost a bit in a side view, but this one works just as well

Re: Barn Owl
This was the only owl which I didn't think was great to photograph. You did very well here
I have lots of photo's of this owl but don't think they are that great. You can hardly see his eyes on all of them. |

 Your feeling that something is not right is, I think, due to the angle that you have caught the owl. It is unusual in not being full-face or at least partially from the front. This has resulted in an unfamiliar view that, in turn, makes the picture look 'not quite right'. |

Re: Barn Owl
I think that is good Ray and the exposure looks spot on. It is much better than my attempts. In most of what I got I could not see the eye or the beak.

Re: Barn Owl
nice details, good composition - it's a good photo. could be a little bit brighter but it's still fine. and i know how easy it is to overexpose photo of this Owl because of it's white colour. you've done it well.
(my photos taken some time ago were overexposed)

Re: Barn Owl
thats nice, would have liked to see a little more of the face but hey we cant have everything and these birds certainly do have a mind of their own............ the background seems a little noisey to me tho.
