Western Screech Owl

This was captured back in Arizona. We had a family of Western screech owl in the backyard and they were so cute!

I found it yesterday and I wanted to see if I could improve the original with Lightroom. I was able to increase the exposure but not to improve the focus.

Oh gosh, the owl doesn't even look real. How wonderful to be able to see it. I've only seen an owl in nature once or twice.

[Annie-Sue]

what a sweet little thing!

He's still very cute. I don't know much about lightroom, but I wonder if it has a process for "restoring old pictures" - that lets me improve the focus on my program. Just a thought. Cheers Rob :)

@robz thanks Rob I’ll check it!

Good shot- in my program I can highlight a certain area and add extra sharpening (fix the exposure, vibrance or saturation too). I'm not familiar Light Room, but I'm sure it must have that feature in some way, shape or form. It doesn't look like it would take much to put him in better focus. Nice shot!

[Paula Fontanini]

It looks perfect to me and he's just the cutest little thing ever!
