Great shot, I do know what it takes to get a shotl like this, and while the winning 'zoo' shots are good shots in the wild sure take a hell of a lot more to get. Esp. in flight too! Lovely work.

This is just a great photo, it's a very sharp photo with good focus on the face and nice motion on the wings. Hope you didn't spend all day waiting for this one but it's was worth it. Good Luck. |

Beautiful bird, very well caught. Looks like you're out in the open too, so kudos for not taking the easy route by visiting a zoo, etc. You've focused it well and just a faster shutter would have improved this. |

Wow, you caught him in mid air! I'm impressed. The lighting is very nice. You're fortunate to have caught the little dude up in the daylight. Like the shallow depth of field. |

Wow, I've not seen photos of an owl flying like this before. Shame the background is so cluttered and with similar colours to your subject. |

I love this shot, but some of the things in the background are a little distracting - not like you could do anything about it. ;-) Fantastic job, though. Will probably be in top 20 at least. |

Oh my! wonderful. I love the sharp focus on his eye, the motion blur of his wings and the out of focus background. What a capture! Fast shutter, no panning? |

Undoubtably beautiful. Almost totally perfect. I'm going to assume you wanted it slightly left of center, either way, a one in a million. 10 |

An absolutely stunning photo of a grey owl. Very clear, great DOF and you have managed to capture the intensity in the owl's eyes. Very nice indeed, a very worthy 10. |
