I love the colors in this photo and the way they are banded horizontally and then the contrast of the crisp vertical bars of the fence in the foreground. It's a wonderful demonstraton of perspective.

This is a nearly perfect wildlife shot. I would suggest cropping it at the point where the road meets the strip of grass. I think it meets the challenge. I like that the bird has plenty of detail; you can tell what it has in it's bill and you can see the ruffling of the feathers quite distinctly. Good job!

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Hi Rúnar! Nice to "meet" you.

I honestly don't see much of interest in this shot. The lighting is poor, the silhouette isn't very interesting to look at and the colors are kinda blah. I wish I had something nicer to say about the photo, but even you said you didn't have hopes for it. Keep shooting, good luck and don't submit things you aren't happy with in some way. :) (even if you submit junk just to make a point).

Composition superb. Your background could have been a disaster, but instead turned into an asset with the very soft bans of color. Great execution.
