Coming to visit the originals from the Deja Vu III challenge:
I absolutely love the stunning colors seen on this Master of the Chicken Coop! The colors are bold and vibrant. Your PP did wonders with making the colors pop off the page. I also like how you caught the rooster in an interesting pose with it's head cocked to look behind him. Your photo is also sharp as a tack for we see all the lovely details from sheen on the end of his tail feather to some of the bumpy textures in the coxcomb (crest on his head. The square crop suits the bird well for it keeps the eye strongly focused on the body of the rooster. Well done. |

Amazing!!! I've had one or two roosters wake me up in my time, but none ever came close to waking the senses the way your 'Rooster' did early this morning. Better than coffee. It got a loud WOW! as it opened and pose majestically on my screen. Lighting, color, clarity, composition, tweaking etc. all 10+++ My laptop has been in for repairs so I could not give you an offical 10 and even with the BLUE I couldn't close without giving you the praise you deserve!!! again WOW!

Of course he was cooperative. He thought you were the representative from Top Cock magazine. Congrats on the blue. I knew it'd do well as soon as I saw it. I'm kinda partial to that lens myself.

| Superbly captured - beautiful treatment of the colours (I'm assuming these have been enhanced in post - otherwise the lighting is just really great). Some might take issue with the fact that you've cropped his feet out - but I think it works without the distraction of ugly chicken legs. 9. |
