Description Meet Kiran a Tawny Owl,
I wanted him to look at me, he has these huge beautiful eyes but

he decided he didn't want to look at me and so he didn't until the

very end of the shoot when i got the shot i had in mind.Β 

But i think this shot is the better.


he is really smart and stubborn... but it was a pleasure working with him


any useful critiques are welcome!


Thanks for all the faves and nice comments!

He's a beautiful creature and the eyes, so intense. One would swear there is more than a spark of intelligence in there.

Oh, such soft brown eyes! Β No wonder that owls are looked upon as the symbol of wisdom; these look like the eyes of an old soul. Β Beautifully captured!
