Hi Mark, What a superb close up of this owl. Those eyes are like looking though a cage at him, it is so clear. Great nature photos. TFS. Murray.

Ciao Mark,

Your owl Bozzy has got so truly hypnotic eyes!

The beautiful portrait features for cutting light and the perfect definition of the shapes and colors of the beautiful nocturnal bird of prey that, in this picture, has a very sweet, almost waiting expression.

A true professional model!

Congratulations!


TFS
