#2 works very well with the golden side light and is stunning. I think you could get by with a tighter crop from the bottom.

Jury is out on #1 but I know you and you won't take offense. I really do like how you got the snow being kicked up. Maybe fill flash dialed down would have been worth trying. Reminds me of Miguel Lasa's extraordinary polar bear.

Glad to see you trying to portray them outside the box.

Waiting to see more.

Fantastic shots Mark - #2 does it for me, with a little tighter bottom crop per Blue Deuce.

I really like the backlighting as it brings more artistry into play, a different angle from previous Snowy owl images posted.

#2 looks really nice.

I like them # 2 very cool. just a tad more detail on the bird would have been awesome.


A little L goes a long way.

The second one has got to be THE MOST beautiful bird picture I've ever seen. Congratulations!

Not much to add...

Except maybe to wonder what all the fuss is about?
