Fantastic shot Callie,
The full 180 look from the owl is superb,
I agree with you about the fascination of the eyes, they are stunning.
Great details and good clarity
Thanks for posting

A real beauty Callie. I like the way it turns it's head around and gives you a great shot of it's plumage at the same time. The colours are stunning as is the composition. Brilliant work

Great shot Callie.
Amazing eyes. No red eyes from the Big Flash.;-)
Very good pose, composition, sharpness and colours.
Excellent work my friend.

Nicely, Callie. Excelent capture and composition. The image shows the attention in the eyes which you found important. Though it would have been nice to have seen the whole body in focus as well. The eyes makes it up.
Well done.

Superbe prise sauvage, Je vous comprends d'avoir une grande passion pour ces oiseaux très surprenants et mystérieux. Ce n'est pas qu'une photo, c'est une histoire d'aventure. Merci pour le partage et cette note très intéressante.

My first thought was that someone had turned the head wrong but then I remembered that the owls can turn the head 180 degrees.
Wonderful capture Callie. Great sharpness and beautiful colours. - I love the way he is looking at you, great pose.

Callie, this is a beautiful shot indeed! Great night capture/details/color rendition and useful note. What stuns me the most is to find out that the owl turns his back to us, except its head. Great work! TFS

Callie, Great shot under these very low-light conditions with good use of flash & composed well. Great focus on the head where it counts..Definitely has that wide-eyed "flash shocked" dazzled by the light look there! Well done!!

I'm amazed at how much movement these guys have in their necks. Superb capture, the black BG is excellent and the eyes are like headlights! Well done.

Definitely a good deal more awake and alert than the one shown by Luc - possibly because this one has to find his own dinner ;-))
I would have liked more DOF in order to get his back and tail within range, too, but I've no idea whether this would have been possible in the circumstances.

Another good owl, Callie. Your wife must love for this, I know how she likes owls. And the eyes! They are so clear and bright, and looking right through you.
Good one.

Great illustration of the flexible neck. Generally a nice shot though the tail is bit out of focus. You have used the off-camera flash well and there is no red-refection which is hard to avoid in owls. Well done.

Stunning eyes! This is great. Good POV & composition. Too bad the tail is slightly oof. But then again, shot in the very dark ... you did VERY well! :)

The impact of this photo is big because of the light on the subject, the beautiful definition of feathers, magnificent eyes with a brilliant petit point. The contrast is very good and the excellent composition. Great shot!
L'impact de cette photo est grande à cause de la lumière sur le sujet, la belle définition des plumes, des yeux magnifiques avec un petit point lumineux. Le contraste est très bon et la composition excellente. Une excellente photo vraiment.
