Back to comment and bump: Safety is a tough subject for a challenge and after a second look; I can appreciate your take on the subject. Hopefully, the DNMC Police don't hit you too hard, as the connection doesn't hit you over the head. I love the post processing on this image. It has a desaturateded look to it from the natural colors that works well. Personal preference would be to have the tree in sharp focus also. I grossly underscored this image when I was voting and I am bumping you to a 6.

Great photo but I'm not sold on the 'Safety' concept: totally. The Owls true 'Safety' feature is their night sight giving them stealth. 7

A great shot.
Focus is spot on and even though theres not much colour in the image it really jumps out.
9/10

Beautiful shot, but I'm not sure an owl's camouflage gives him safety from bring hunted as much as it gives him the element of surprise during his hunt. I'm not marking down for it, I'm just saying.

I can see this ribboning, it's beautiful and razor-sharp focus on the owl. Good take on the challenge.

Catalina PBY. Sweet shot. I would've given this a ten. This is a fantastic image. I'd love to know a little of the story behind this shot- settings etc...
