I love these two shots!
Just wish the stick wasn't in the lower left of the second shot, kinda throws the balance off, but that's just nitpicking.

Where are you located?

Really excellent shots, you lucky dog, you! I love the pastel hues of the second.

Those are both super special captures Rex...and I mean SUPER!
Unlike others, I prefer the colors in the first...OK, call me strange, but white owls on a pastel pink background just isn't my thing. I'm assuming you still have enough wall space somewhere for 1 or both to hang?

No fair! Congrats on 2 beautiful shots. I like the first with each of them looking in a different direction, with the third right at you.

These are looking very well. I guess the lens is a keeper then? :)

Tough enough to find one let alone three... grand couple of shots, congrats on the captures.

Thank you all, again.
Yes, I'll keep the lens. I've seen the wonderful shots many of you have posted using that lens. Thats what helped sell me.
