This is my first submission for a 'member' challenge. I figured I would do something a little bit different from what I guess many people would do. What remains now is to see what my fellow members think.

I particularly like the moldy leaf, and the sore red feet are a nice touch.
the feathers look a little thin, giving that appealing abandoned look.
and the wings suggesting movement really are great,
Composition is excellent, the rule of thirds, allthough ignored alltogether gives this central subject a certain fullness, allmost stuffed feeling,
how did u get so close without scaring him.

Don't understand anyone giving a member a 1 if it meets the challenge, especially if it's in focus and just "OK".
Maybe it's me, but feel this comment was a bit rude.

Okay, it is a bird. Kinda cute little bird too. And he's in focus - even the tree is in focus. I believe the image is a little over saturated - the orange is almost blinding. There are many amazing real bird image in this challenge. Held up to them, this image kind of fails. On its own, its pretty cute. Looks a little oversharpened. Creative though - this is the only one in the challenge. Good luck!

I love your courage and sense of humor. Orange needs to be toned down a tad bit. 6

Although cute, I didn't think the challenge meant stuffed birds.

This is very cute!!!!
06/16/2005 03:28:39 PM
Bird is a bit fuzzy! ;-)

Your bird seems much easier to pose then mine was! Good thinking!
06/15/2005 09:30:23 PM
OK, it's a bird but you took the easy way out!
06/15/2005 06:32:37 PM
funny
06/15/2005 03:28:41 PM
the brown is a little distracting

Sharp focus, good lighting- and I like that you have the "bird" on a branch. Perhaps I would pick leaves next time without brown spots. lol. Good attempt at thinking out-side the box on the bird challenge.

Nice idea
06/14/2005 03:18:21 PM
Good try. I was looking for a real bird though.

awwwwwww

Sorry, but too cliche for me. Nicely focused though.
06/13/2005 09:51:15 AM
cute but not cute enough to score high.
06/13/2005 07:35:10 AM
funny, but.....
06/13/2005 04:25:00 AM
Sorry, this doesn't appeal.
