Just saw this. It's unusual and I love the yellow/black/lilac combo. Nice how the balance of the bird and the stem with leaves gives you two things to look at.

very nice shot . Wish the bird took up less space of minimalism.

Nice colors. Seems to be a loss of detail in the yellow area of the bird. Very good entry nonetheless

Nice subject. DOF seem a little off for the Gold Finch
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/30/2005 09:24:06 AM

nice photo, but not so minimalism
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/28/2005 08:15:36 PM
Very nice. The DOF is wonderful here and the color of the background really accentuates the yellow of the bird. Great job!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/28/2005 05:14:35 PM
great colors that purple really makes the yellow Finch? standout - 7
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/28/2005 03:27:39 PM
I love how you ended up with a pink background, which sets off the yellow of the bird so nicely. The added bonus is the budding leaves. 8

Way too busy - too many things in the foreground for this challenge. Nice shot otherwise...
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The bird looks annoyed. :) Nice color contrasts, with the brightness of the bird drawing the eye immediately.

Amazing colours, great focus, shallow DOF, love the composition .... this picture has big possibilities to grab a ribbon, though competition is going to be tough. Good luck :))

That's a pretty shot, but not minimalistic for me
