    Beautiful capture Larry, and congrat's on a lifer for ya'. Very impressive in size aren't they?

    (What would be more impressive would be a pic of the "Great Grey Owl walking the dog" that you say you saw. Now THAT I have never seen).

    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!

    Quite a picture, those eyes are a little eerie staring right at you. The eyes look nice and sharp too.
