This is really great. It doesn't need anything. Perfect exposure and focus. Nice composition and crop. I like the way the leaves create a frame around the owl. Maybe a little sharpening - that's all.

I love how the roots have a grey cast that almost looks other-worldly. I actually can't imagine you'd want to fool too much with this one - it looks really great the way it is. Will be interested to see your choices!

I too like the white roots that are exposed. This might look good with way too much contrast but you'll have to play with it and see what you think.

Beautiful, Waddy! The colors are so rich, and details are crisp. Awesome job for straight out of camera.

It's really cool how you can see where the water lines used to be.
