I elected to use a rating table to decide on what value to assign during voting.
Here̢۪s the table:
1 No Animal/People Interaction
2 Slightly Appealing, but no Animal/People Interaction
3 Moderately Appealing, but on Animal/People Interaction
4 Greatly Appealing, but no Animal/People interaction
5 Not Appealing, but possessing Animal/People Interaction
6 Slightly Appealing and possessing Animal/People Interaction
7 Moderately Appealing and possessing Animal/People Interaction
8 Greatly Appealing and possessing Animal People Interaction
9 Better than #8, and caused an audible sigh
10 Better than #9, and would likely declare it a favorite

It's a neat shot but the star of this show should be the interaction, which is going on in the background. Not gonna hurt your score from me though, the originality rocks.

No interaction with the main subject (unless you count the photographer) but there is in the background. If the owl were a little more left and not blocking the handler in the back may have worked better for me.
