    Re: the bird

    Hmmmm. I'm split on this shot. I love the bird's angle and the position it's in, yet that glowing yellow light is very distracting from this shot. Especially on the light blue background, it's quite distracting. I'd recommend either burning it or maybe try different crops to see how it works.

    Nice shot, but could use some improvement,

    Re: the bird

    This is an out of the ordinary pose for a bird shot, which I think is nice. The tail seems a bit blown out tho. Also, as Jared mentioned, the light is distracting. I do like that you got the entire bird in the frame tho. Nice capture.

    Re: the bird

    I actually like the light. It's actually a pretty simple image I think, Bird...Sky...Light...

    So me..I think it's a good shot. It's a keeper, and you can also have some fun editing it.
