It does not surprise me that this is your photo Courtenay, you have the soul of an artist and the eye of a master - you have a true gift. My thought is this photo should be on the front page with a big fat blue ribbon next to it, but my thoughts are muddled and goofed, like cereal that's been in the bowl too long.
Anyway - exceptional art from an exceptional artist. |

Love the high-key and the composition!
But the best of all is the posture of the bird that you have captured - almost a free-flowing drawing by a dexterous hand!

Great use of negative space!!!!
"I do not know which to prefer ..."
Your excellent photo is at the top of my voting heap, tied with a few others for top spot; I hope DPC gets this photo and allows it to float to the collective top. However the voting has gone for you I believe you have a true wall-hanger here, and it could go on any wall, any where. |

| This is such a wonderful image. The x shape of the wings and tail feathers, the touch of color from the legs. Isolating the bird with a blank background really makes this very special. |

| One of the few bird shots I really really like. This is awesome. I'm assuming the background was a dull sky and it was dodged? Regardless, it's a well composed shot! |
