The angle, color, and crisp image in the foreground with the soft background work very well. Interesting photo. Excellent work,

I love this shot! Very creative and patient to wait for just the right pose. Colors are awesome. I'd definitely look at this all month and smile every time. I gave you a 10.

This may have benefitted from a rotation.

nice posture. unfortunately the green and blue on the head/nape blends a bit too much into the BG so the bird does not stand out as much as I'd like. very nice though.

Whoa. The angle of this is very unusual to say the least. It adds a lot of tension - like what the heck? Focus (and soft focused background) is superb. Exposure is right on - but if the hot spots in the right bottom could have been shaded, it would be stronger. Great color saturation.

This caught my eye immediately and kept me hooked. I absolutely love the perspective and sparkling clarity. Perfect crop chosen in my opinion (in or out of the camera). Terrific shot for a calendar!
