Although this is a fantastic image, I feel that the bird is more of the subject than the branch.

I think this should have placed much higher. I love your use of leading lines and lovely B&W shot.

Comment by Luci11e:
the only suggestion I have for this photo is that it should have been taken from a different angle so that the leading lines of the cables on the left hand side didn't get lost in the trees

GREETINGS FROM THE CRITIQUE CLUB

Aww, old "Pancho" has been supplanted by an alpaca! Pancho was the reigning beast when I visited that site some years ago.
:-))

Of course this is a fine picture and you have many accolades from the knowledgeable people on the site. It works well in black and white and the placement of the alpaca in the grass is wonderful. It describes the site perfectly.

If I were to nitpic, and that's what I'm here for, I would suggest cropping out some of the left side of the image. Say, remove the area including those 2 people to the left. That gives undivided attention to the stone house and makes a nice triangle to the animal and back up, keeping the viewer in the picture.

Glad you entered this fine image. I had a good time reviewing it and remembering a great time there when I visited.

I like the unexpected angle and perspective.

Woefully underappreciated. This is much better than the score indicates and I thank you for sharing it with us.

Love all the angles and juxtapositions in this photo. For me, the grass brings the alpaca to life, almost as if he/she were rising from flames.

really, really like this shot... but... and i'm sure i'm not the first to comment about this, it would be 3-4 times better with a crop of the left 1/3rd... (i'll vote as if it was :P)

the sky looks weird here. The b/w conversion is more gray and flat. it is a very nice crop and composure though.
