Captured a little fellow standing on the edge.
Cropped, auto levels, USM, levels, reduce size.

I liked the composition with the bird on the edge of the park bench. He seemed to be overwhelmed by the sheer size of the cement bench area.

The weight of the bench seems to take away from a minimalistice theme. 4

I like nature photography a lot and this one suits the challenge. The only thing I see worng with this one is that the bird is looking out to the edge, always looks odds...but it's a bird so what can you do? :)

I am almost drawn more to the design of the bench than the bird. Perhaps if it was doing something interesting...

You get a good sense of the size of the bird. However, to my eye the bench grabs too much attention.

Simply lines. The curve in the bench is appealing. Sharp. Meets challenge well.

Wish the bird was looking into the picture instead of away.

Lacks the simplicity and elegance I associate with minimalism, but nice all the same
