Kristof, this is a great photo. I can see shadows in his eyes they are so close to me on the desktop. It's crystal clear and just magnificant. Thanks so much for sharing this with us. Anita

Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooa...is this ever cool. You ought to score big with this one. The temptation to have snapped the whole owl must have been great but capturing only the eyes was a great move. This is what "desktop captures" are all about. Beautiful.

Beautiful work! As per jma55's comments, there are a couple of bits that need some touchup, but photoshop takes care of that nicely. It still wouldn't be possible without an excellent source, though, so thumbs up mate!
