Enviable focusing and nicely frozen motion. The light from the sky in the background is a bit distracting... Maybe next time you could ask the owl to fly a little lower:))

What an incredible wing span, when they spread them.

Absolutely fantastic shot. The lighting on the wings is extra nice. I love that this is head-on - looks like it is flying right at you.

Very nice capture but on the fence about the editing.The background seems to be forced into a blur.

nice, like the transparency of its wings and the feeling of it looking it your eyes
  Photographer found comment helpful.

One or multi shot? Fabulous focus and engagement but the coop at the back really hurts this imo. No problem shooting captive birds but find a better angle if you can?
