Description
This is a close up photograph of a great horned owl. She was a patient that was brought into my practice injured. I photographed her while she was standing in my exam room. I went back and processed the shot with selective coloring. No enhancement was made to the color of her eyes, that is how they naturally are but the black and white makes them seem extra saturated. A touch of vignette finishes the piece and adds even more emphasis to her eyes staring straight at you.

Thank you Michael for all the great comments. I grew up in Howard county, not far at all from Mt. Airy. Small world.

Superb close-up, Cassandra, reproducing the expression on the eyes, with great contrast of the colours.

The selective coloring adds drama to this already arresting portrait. Congratulations on your 2nd place win in the recent Yellow on Black contest.
