Sorry for the updated duplicate. This image really spoke volumes to me. The intensity of the eyes are spot on, and Crystal sharp. I love the way that the wings just covered the right eye of the owl just enough to capture that movement as it was in flight. Thank you so much for submitting that to the challenge I do enjoy viewing your images as part of the ViewBug community. Keep on creating!

Thanks so much Todd, this was a very lucky sequence to capture. Interestingly, the color version of this photo just took second place in the National Veteran's Administration art contest. The winner from each of the 171 VA facilities were pitted against each other to chose a national winner and this took the silver medal - quite a few when you consider the thousands that started at each of the facilities and it was 171 winners pitted against each other. Also, another in the sequence on my gallery page was chosen as the Earth Day brochure and poster photo for which they paid me nicely. Also at the festivities on Earth Day, they had blown the photo up to 10 feet x 10 feet and used it as the back drop for the stage. I wish I could be lucky more often!! :)
