Fantastic!

Thanks so much for your comments and peer awards! They mean a LOT to me! I had to really crouch on the ground to get the moon placement behind his head!

Really great shot... and I love owls too...

Thanks for the peer awards and comments! Appreciated!

HOOTER'S! OWLY! HOO!HOO! at the Moon.

Thanks for the peer awards and comments! Appreciated!

Outstanding capture. The moon adds greatly to the shot.

Thanks! This shot reminds me of Ansel Adams famous saying "knowing where to stand" (or in this case lay). I had to fight to get the right position to show moon behind head. Teaches one to recompose until you get the shot! Thanks again for your Superior Skill award and taking the time to leave feedback! I will do the same as time permits!
