| beautiful photo but I don't get the connection to branch. Even your title suggests we notice the birds and not specifically any of the surrounding flora. |

| I like all the things going on in this picture. The boy tugging, the geese swimming, the men sitting and lazing. I enjoy the emotions evoked by the dark hole on the right, the light leaves or flowers on the left, the mystery of the weeping willow, the energy of the sun and its path. Thank you for sharing. The only thing which I found uncomfortable is the title. But heck, maybe it will grow on me. |

| The sign and swans (although nice elements) takes away a bit from the strong action happening with the young boy playing with the branch. You could have moved further left and closer so as to make him fill more of the shot, and catch some features like his shadow. And also resolve the direction of his gaze by either placing some space that way rather than placing the space at his back and making his face so close to the edge of the shot, or else get him to face back towards the direction you want the viewers focus (the brannch dragging inm the water). |

| The swans get lost in the glare, and this does not meet the challenge to me. |

| This image is good. If you ever decide on a reshoot, you might try lowering your POV so the branches aren't cutting off the people in the background's heads. Highlights a little blown but its not overwhelming the image. I am bugged by the little bit of branch on the upper left - it just floats there. I like the tones used. |

| A great shot of Americana (unless it is somewhere else)...lol Regardless I love the imagery and the tones. The branch is there and I like that you went about it in an original way.....great job -- 8 -- |

| Its a good photo. The lighting makes it feel nostalgic. Nice use of branches as a frame and pointer to the boy. |

| Nice lighting but it's hard to focus on one thing. |

| glare off the water is distracting, perhaps a single color saturation to bring out the green leaves would have made the branches more prominent than the water glare |

| Really nice picture, but believe it or not I think the" Please feed the birds" sign take away. But thats just my thoughts. I like the color and focus, such a clear photo. Great job! 8 |

| Nice Shot. I am from Boston as well and was shooting the swan boats 2 weekends ago myself. It looks like you trained those 2 swans to swim in unison with the boat. |
