Heh! Very delightful view! Rather cynical look you caught - I suspect he thought you were up to something....

Love the POV. Having the bird exactly centered tends to make it be bullseye like and that weakens the feel of it. In other words, implementing the rule of thirds would have helped. But I really really like this idea. 7

I love the look on the bird's face "seriously, that's not the best place to be standing right about now".

Lol love your title. In a shot like this I would have paid more attention to the 1/3 rule. Maybe not so much with the wire but the bird on the left or right would have made a more dynamic image IMO. 6

This had great potential!! Seems like the focusing is on his feet? That let's me down a bit, I think that using the rule of thirds in your shot would've worked more successfully, meets the challenge non the less, best of luck!
