excellent work, neil, as well as under-appreciated! don't sweat the scores below 4--that's typical, and not really worth consideration.

the only thing i'd suggest your doing with this is to revisit your image and try various differing crops to see if there is a more powerful presentation of the imagery you've captured. you've got a very strong foundation image to work with, and there might be any number of treatments that could work well. keep up the great work!

Could have been great shot if the bird had been closer/larger.

Wow... How did you capture the owl so sharply behind those branches? A 10 from me. Good job.

Interesting - but I think that all of the branches in the background take away from the hunting bird...

I think you should have zoomed in closer.

I sense a ribbon in your near future....

Wow! Great capture! And I love the way the limbs go diagonally across the photo. My only suggestion would be to place the owl (?) by the rule of thirds on the upper right. I know that's just a guideline, but I really think it would have strengthened the composition. That being said, I've never ribboned, so I wouldn't take my advice too seriously ;-) just an opinion that I hope will prove useful.
