Great animal like some ancient king or some Gandalf ...
Clever looks I mean and lovely poise too LOL
Very nice lighting, composition and general effect !
Thanks and royal animalistic congratulations !!!

Yea, what Marzena said. This is an outstanding shot. The only thing that would have been better(?) would to have had him in full flight. But posing like this is really good. Thanks for sharing it.

Patti, you have done terrific job here. Nice capture of a beautiful raptor...I like the fact that you have bird slightly off center of composition. I am interested in shooting birds and especially would love to get shots of owls, in the wild...gerry..

Lovely bird. How beautiful. He certainly is posing for you. His colors show up superbly. Nice capture.

Just look at those hypnotic eyes! He looks so regal sitting there - how lucky you were that he would pose like this.

Majestic Bird..He has great eyes,agree foofoo.He must see very little animals in white
snow,to find nothing to eat..Thanks for this..Its a Superb Capture.

Great capture, what a great looking owl.

wow, what a wonderful shot. :)

Great shot of a great bird. He looks so soft and cuddly..but believe me.. I won't try. Very well done, here.. thanx for sharing.

Great capture. I think it's quite special because most photos I've seen over the years will have this magnificient bird perched in a "snow scene". Your picture with the grassy background as contrast makes the bird stand out in all his glory. You were "pleased" with this image. Had I taken this photo ... "ecstatic" might have been my choice of words :)
