Steve,

A truly sinister mood in this one. The B&W treatment adds to the mood, and the DOF is perfect. Good comp. w/ the face in the 'sweet spot'. Love the black holes for eyes appearance you've captured. Where'd you shoot this wonderful Barred Owl?

Appreciate your comments Arlen, this is a full frame image, no cropping, the grains comes from pushing the film, if I remember it was an overcast day in a Vancouver park.
