What a really lovely capture of this gorgeous owl. He has very good camaflage against that tree so I hope the crows did not see him. It's an excellent capture. Good focus, good light management. Excellent angle. Very balanced and a nice presentation

A beautiful owl and a very nicely composed shot. It is amazing how every bird that is black will gather around a sleeping owl and pester him until he leaves. Very nice colors but a slightly soft image.

Comment from Renate-Bertodi
What a splendid owl, giving you the look of his whole being. If I were good with dogs, I would do a dog walking business, so good for your daily exercise instead of having to think whom to visit who lives at least a mile away to walk to, for that exercise. Clever, clever you! The owl stands out even though his is almost integral in colours and patternings to his surroundings!! Gorgeous.

Comment from Lucas Sizov
I rated this photo as the highest because it it wonderful! Perfect entry for the contest. It could be the winner of color brown contest also (if any). A lot of textures in there. Excellent composition, nice detailed look. Without the shadow in the lower right corner it would be just pretty flat. I would call this shot "Chameleon Owl". Bravo!!! Good luck in the contest!

oh, your so kind. He was trying to sit in the sun here, so yes there was a bit of a shadow, He does blend in well too!
Comment from Glena Jessee-King
This is a gorgeous owl, well camouflaged, especially that head. Before I saw the rest of it, the head looked carved into the tree. The features are so lovely with the browns and whites. Best wises in the contest.

Welcome, artist friend liseworks.
Comment from cleo85
Your close-up shot is interesting. Apparently, the bird found a comfortable resting place. The bird seems camouflaged by the tree. The Owl seems sleeping.
Your photo is perfect focused and exposed and has good depth. I enjoy the sharpness of detail and textures and the realism of light and color. The photo is well composed. The Owl is well placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.

thank you, these owls hug the tree to blend in for the day, although this one left because he was too exposed and the crows would not leave it alone

Comment from supergold
it would be worth a six stars for this nice pose of the sleeping owl on a tree branch;
unfortunately, your pic is clearly out of focus; the people who give a five* are clearly blind or unfair;

You do not think much about your fellow reviewers I gather.

I think that some are just blind but much worse, some give a five or even a six * just because they want to get the same from you; but no problem: continue to be proud of all your pics, even the ones which are obviously out of focus!
