National Geographic

This was my favorite photo because owls are one of my favorite animals.  I like how the owl is clear and your can see every feather on him but the background is blurry, which adds to the affect. I also really like the determination on the owls face.  He is determined to get to wherever he is going.  Overall, this is just a beautiful picture and animal.  If i would submit a photo to the contest, i would want to take a  picture of some sort of animal or natural event.  Also maybe a powerful picture of someone in the world going through hard times.
