Wow, I don't know if I could have got home quick enough with a shot like this in my flash card. Absolutely stunning image Mike. Exposure couldn't be better and you captured the intensity of the hunt perfectly. Worth repeating-Wow.

Love the yellowness of the eyes against the white background. If it shut them it would be invisible! What a beautiful bird, Thanks for posting

Fantastic shot! Love the eyes. Really superb.
You've got some fantastic images in your photobucket gallery.
That beanbag is something else!

And the other snowy owl book image is truly jaw dropping. Really fantastic Mike.

Very nice shot Mike. I wonder what this winter will bring? We had Snowys in Wisconsin, all over, last year. :)
