It is a good looking owl you have pictured here, and it almost looks like it is talking to you. Especially the big shiny eye is well captured, and the bird is also standing out from the neutral background in an excellent way.

The photo is sharp with clear and well defined details, and the exposure is perfect.

I also like the tight framing and the placement of the bird within the frame. A truly lovely and well taken photo with a very good DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.

The owl is beautifully golden and such expression you have captured so well. The background is also skillfully done. Really looks like a painting, so animated and adorable.

Nice job. What type of camera was used? I like owls they are magnificent birds. What a great close up to be able to capture the beak and the beautiful eyes great job.

Beautiful portrait of the owl, there is such a variety of owls , this is one that we don't have here.
You have photographed it well with good focus, the image is clear, I'm seeing a bit of green on the beak,
The owl is well placed within the frame and stands out so beautifully from the green background.
Other then the green on beak, this is well presented! Best wishes to you in this contest!
