Ah carrion. Excellent focus, interesting subject. The only thing this picture lacks is interest though. The subject is excellent, but the background takes away the majority of points from a perfect picture. I give this a 6, a change of background could of earned it upwards of a 9.

I'm not sure this is what Atkins had in mind...

Hysterical! I wish there was more definition between the scavanger's head and the morsal upon which he is feasting, but the theme is so funny and entertaining, I gotta give you high marks just for making me giggle. Atkins indeed! LOL

Nice. Where is his head ? Nice composition.

Great shot. I think I might have taken a little more of the tree out, but love the shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Striking image. Technically fine. Wish the big tree weren't there, but roadkill happens where it happens I guess. Extra point for making me double check the title and then laugh out loud!

This one made my laugh out loud! Great idea. Good luck

Ewww, I think I just switched diets! This would have had incredible impact if cropped more from the top. But nice shot and great angle

Wish you had zoomed in more to isolate the bird better to help eliminate and blur the distracting background. Tone and color are really good, but the pic is a real stretch to meet the challenge theme.

That is one thin turkey vulture!

This is just a cool capture with this title.....lol...cracked me up. I\'m going to have to guess your in California. I always see this scene when I go there. Fantastic capture. I think a tighter crop would of been better..?

Love the title--how imaginative! Nice shot too. Wonder if it might look better with a little cropped off the top?
