Great shot. Love the eyes. Owls in general are beautiful birds, too bad I have never seen one here in The Netherlands...

I am happy with how this image came out. Resizing an image can make it look sharper but I think this one came out quite good straight from camera. A tip for low shutter speeds is to take a few continuous shots. This will improve your odds of getting a sharp one in the bunch.

That's unbelievably sharp for 1/13!

Thanks Tim. Image Stabilization came through for me here.
